K Y L I E Johnson KYLIE’S ART STUDIO & SUPPLIES OWNER

I had been teaching for a quite a few years from home and also from an art shop in Wauchope called “Who Framed?”. When this closed, I decided there was a need for an art supply business, as we didn’t have any in the area at the time. We have been trading for six years, and the business is growing. We have a full selection of Matisse and Atelier acrylic paints, Art Spectrum pastels, as well as Faber Castell Pitt Pastel pencils and Prismacolor colouring pencils, and a full stand of Daniel Smith Watercolour paints. Our classes have also increased to having five classes per week. As well as all our quality art supplies, we also stock a great range of unique and arty gifts, which we are constantly changing and updating. My greatest achievement since opening the shop would be entering the Archibald Prize last year with a portrait I painted of my aunt, who was 102 at the time. Unfortunately, I didn’t make the finalists, but it was an experience just to enter. I measure success in my business by being able to support our local community and provide a quality shopping experience to the area. We have given many vouchers to help fundraising for local organisations; locals supporting us helps us to support local.
