* [http://www.paintworks.biz/index/index.php Paintworks] Nearest to the Space, on Kingsland Road. Don't know anything more about it [[User:Akki14|Akki14]] ([[User talk:Akki14|talk]]) Extremely good for its size, often with good deals on short-dated paint or ink.

* [http://www.atlantisart.co.uk/ Atlantis Art] is a large warehouse-sized art shop with all kinds of things. Probably not cheapest for things like liquid latex, silicone moulding materials etc but it's there and it's reasonably priced for large sheets of paper, melinex (laserable clear sheet - useful for stencils), higher quality art supplies etc. One thing that caught me out - they have a vast selection of airbrush media but no hardware ! | * [http://www.atlantisart.co.uk/ Atlantis Art] is a large warehouse-sized art shop with all kinds of things.

* [http://www.cassart.co.uk/shops_01.htm Cass Art] nearest branch is probably Islington. The "large" shop in Islington isn't as big as Atlantis. Range is slightly less upmarket than Atlantis as well. Know your prices before going - a lot of it claims to be cheaper than retail but actually isn't cheapest available elsewhere. | * [http://www.cassart.co.uk/shops_01.htm Cass Art] nearest branch is probably Islington.

* [http://www.cornelissen.com/ Cornelissen & Son] Holborn area. Pretty shop. Stocks some interesting papers, vellum, parchment, etc but take a shopping list with you if you're buying anything other than standard packs of papers as their paper stock is hidden away downstairs. Can be a bit on the pricey side but check out their clearance section for decent priced artists brushes. | * [http://www.cornelissen.com/ Cornelissen & Son] Holborn area. Pretty shop.
