Celebrating World Mental Health Day 💙

At Artway, we recognise that our minds, bodies, and the creative process are deeply interlinked and we understand that finding a visual platform for expression when words simply aren’t enough can make a huge difference to our wellbeing.

This is why we are incredibly proud of our ongoing relationship with the BAAT - The British Association of Art Therapists . We are thrilled to be holding a stand at their upcoming annual conference on Saturday 7th November - if you are attending, please look out for us! Our team would love to meet you, chat about your work, and show you our ranges of materials that could support your clinical practice and nurture your own identities as artists.

👉 Did you know we offer an exclusive 15% discount to all BAAT members to help you stock your studios, workshops, and clinical spaces with high-quality, reliable materials?

Whether you are looking to enrich your studio or want to connect with us ahead of the November conference, visit our website to learn more or drop us a direct message.

Inktober Day 9: Ram 🐏

How has it been over a week since Inktober launched?!

💡Quick tip for today: If you want to experiment but are feeling cautious, layer some tracing paper over your image and play like we’ve done here.

We are thrilled to sponsor this year’s Calne Music & Arts Festival, which kicked off on October 2nd and runs until October 11th!

As strong advocates for creativity and expression, we are proud to support this fantastic celebration of local talent, music, and visual arts.

Members of our team attended the opening night last Friday. Among them was our joint owner and director, Charis, pictured here admiring the artwork on display. We left feeling incredibly inspired by the diverse exhibits and the wonderful community in Wiltshire.

The festival runs through this Sunday, so there is still plenty of time to check out the remaining events. Thank you to the organisers for having us 🙌! Calne Music & Arts Festival

To the educators shaping the future, Happy World Teachers’ Day! 🍎✨

As a key supplier for educators, teachers are close to our hearts and we are constantly inspired by the passion and creativity they bring to the classroom.

We know that teachers don't just teach art - they model care, expression, and future-thinking. That's why we are committed to providing sustainable, eco-friendly art supplies that look after the planet your students will inherit. From recycled sketchbooks to sustainably sourced tools, we strive to make it easy to bring green creativity into your curriculum.

Thank you for everything you do.

Celebrating World Architecture Day 🤍

Today, we are incredibly inspired by watercolour artist and architect Pablo Cuesta, a cherished member of our community at Artway.

Pablo shared the following about his artworks:

"I like to think that buildings have personalities. In this first painting, I portrayed Madrid’s beautiful Almudena Cathedral as if it were sitting for a portrait.

In this other painting I tried to portrait a moment in time. It’s the end of the day in Madrid, the sun is leaving the sky but the city stays beautiful and busy as always."

We were honoured to celebrate Pablo as our Artist of the Month last year, and we love continuing to follow his creative journey.

👉 We love seeing what artists create with our materials! Be sure to tag us in your posts, and if you’d like to be featured on our page, drop us a DM or get in touch via our website.
