The Wall 2 years agoWho said Fine oil is only used by old artists ?!
Students of the best french Fine Art school “Les Beaux Arts de Paris” have been participating with great passion during on full day to a workshop with Lefranc Bourgeois:
1/ To understand Oil and Medium thanks to Pierre SANCHEZ from R&D,
2/ To test with Laurent BLANDIN the new Lefranc Bourgeois fine oil range and its spectacular primary colours, 100% made in France.
They all showed great interest in Lefranc Bourgeois expertise and were impressed by the level of quality, so were their four experimented teachers !
They recognized the superior quality and the lack of knowledge regarding oil & medium in the artists schools. We will make sure to reinforce our link with theses prescriptors, and train them regularly so they become regular users of Lefranc Bourgeois fine oils & medium !
Thanks to Pierre & Laurent!

The Wall 2 years agoEarlier this month I had the great honor and pleasure of joining @andyglinos and @damientergella in Bangkok to represent Liquitex and train over 50 retailers and sales managers on behalf of distributor DHA Siamwalla. As a result we now have a commitment to get Liquitex into 70 new stores! The retailers and sales managers were an enthusiastic group and Andy and Damien were moving about the room the whole time to help reinforce the product information that I was sharing. Please take a look at the 1 minute recap video below to get a sense of the mood and good time that was had by all.

Great job Steve, Sarah and all the NA teams !!!! So happy to be in New Orleans with you during those 3 days and see how we manage to outperform the competition in terms of branding, narrative and high quality relationship with the customers. Our key NPD initiatives were wonderfully displayed, and it is good to feel that there is further potential the level for our “smaller” brands, beyond the well established strength of Liquitex and W&N. Sky is the limit for Colart in the US, and we have the right team to make it happen ! Let’s keep the rhythm…

The Wall 2 years agoA little blast from the past I found on the Instagram feed @historicnyc , Pearl Paint on Canal Street, Manhattan, circa 1970’s.

Gareth Meredith replied 2 years ago
and Jimmy … aside from absolutely loving the image can you please tell everyone the relevance of Pearl Paint?…
-
Jimmy Leslie replied 2 years ago
It was an old independent New York City store with a cantankerous owner and aisles chock full of supplies, so much so that you might have called it a fire hazard, but it was beloved by the lower Manhattan art scene. I believe it went out of business around 2012 if I remember correctly but I may be off on that date. …

Steve Chamberlain replied 2 years ago
It was THE place for all the artists in lower Manhattan (SoHo etc) to shop. Iconic and still missed to this day. Some of you may have met Allan at Jerry’s Artarama in West Orange, NJ – he used to be the manager there and has many stories……

Millions of tonnes of clothing, shoes and other textiles end up in landfill every year because very little is sent for recycling .
“The current fashion system uses high volumes of non-renewable resources, including petroleum, extracted to produce clothes that are often used only for a short period of time, after which the materials are largely lost to landfill or incineration. “This system puts pressure on valuable resources such as water, pollutes the environment and degrades ecosystems in addition to creating societal impacts on a global scale.” There are good reasons to seek out alternatives to chucking clothes in the bin – globally the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions, with textile production alone is estimated to release 1.2 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere every year. Vast amounts of water are also needed to produce the clothes we wear too and the fashion industry is responsible for 20% of global waste water. At the same time we are buying more clothes than ever – the average consumer now buys 60% more clothing than they did 15 years ago. More than two tonnes of clothing are bought each minute in the UK, more than any other country in Europe. Globally, around 56 million tonnes of clothing are bought each year, and this is expected to rise to 93 million tonnes by 2030 and 160 million tonnes by 2050.
"Reuse. Recycle. Rethink — your clothes deserve a second life, not a landfill."
