DeSerres (https://www.deserres.ca) is also a Canadian company with stores across the country.
The Paint Spot is run by artists passionate about fine art materials, generous with their knowlege, and committed to buidling an dynamic art community. Visit in person or online to see the large selection of diverse art supplies.
