Our Travel Exhibition is officially on the road! 🎨

Its first stop is at ArtSmart. Pop in and say hello to Cory and Sarah, the lovely duo who are always happy for a chat and would love to show you the incredible Derivan and Matisse ranges available in store.

The display highlights our much-loved Matisse range, featuring a variety of mediums alongside your favourite paints - Structure, Flow and Fluid. Topping it all off is our stunning header board, painted by an Australian artist and inspired by the diverse landforms of the Australian landscape.

Whether you’re dropping by for a browse, a chat, or simply to admire the display through the window, we’d love for you to come and visit the exhibition while it’s in Seaforth for the next couple of weeks.
