Midwest Studio Birch Artist Panels
Possibilities as limitless as your imagination...

Midwest Studio’s Birch Artist Panels are high-quality and cut with precision. Each studio grade panel goes through a rigorous inspection process to ensure they are free from material defects. These high-density panels are perfect for all mediums and artistic levels. The cross lamination of plies helps prevent warping when introduced to moisture. The panels are not prepped, primed, or cradled; this allows for artistic freedom and easy framing!

Indigo Tie Dye Kit
User-friendly kit makes for an impactful demo or workshop

Indigo is not only a famous color, it’s also an incredibly unique dye that occurs in plants found all over the world. Used for millennia (you may have seen recent headlines pushing the earliest known use to 3,000 BCE in Peru!), it is still used to color every pair of blue jeans today. Indigo has a fascinating history, and the dyeing process is magical. Its unique properties make it especially well-suited for creating resist patterns on fabric.

The Jacquard Indigo Tie Dye Kit makes indigo dyeing easier than ever. A little goes a long way: Jacquard’s kit provides enough dye to color up to 15 yards of fabric or 15 adult t-shirts! As a group activity, indigo dyeing is always a hit. CLICK HERE to download Cassie Bremher’s beautifully done instructional on how to lead an impactful indigo dyeing workshop in your apartment or store, no experience required!

New Stonehenge Aqua Coldpress Black

The first 100% cotton black watercolor paper: Stonehenge Aqua Coldpress Black. With recent introductions of new metallic and pearlescent watercolor paints, pencils, pens, markers and inks, the timing couldn’t be better for Stonehenge Aqua Coldpress Black to bring these media to life. Instead of building up shadows, one builds up light. It’s a place where negative space is transformed into positive. And while it may be dark, it’s a chance for those who live and breathe watercolors to bring a new breed of creativity to light.
