STUART'S PAINTS!

Can I Find Stuart's Materials in Any Shop?

It's not something Stuart can offer at the moment!. He really likes to distribute the paints directly from the studio so that the team can be in touch with the artists that use them and really give them the right level of support!. Because all the pa

Can I Use Your Paints on Fabric?

Sadly we don't recommend using most of my paints on clothes. Acrylic paints cant be washed. You can use Tiff and several of my other potions on leather though, as long as it's creased. So for example: a lot of artists paint designs on leather jackets
