Reviews of Art Cansel (Painter)

Friend of mines car broke down on Kenmount road and he had to pull in here until we could arrange a tow/fix and the lady working there came out freaking out wanted to tape his car up and had already called the cops. I can understand if it was there for 4 or 5 days, yes I absolutely would too but its called having a bit of common courtesy, he didn't choose where his car broke down and it was there less than 1 day and is now moved. I would never recommend someone shop there or go there based on this interaction. I can't imagine it being a friendly environment.

We had a felted piece framed. The staff was helpful and encouraging to artist who helped me pit the frame and materials used.

Very friendly and excellent customer service.

Brian Carey

Great place to get artwork and photography printed, mounted and framed.

Kristen English

Wonderful staff and great products for both beginners and seasoned artists! Also, excellent value for the price. MUCH better quality than art supplies from Michael's, etc.

Teresa Frost

This place is amazing. Complete creativity overload everytime I go in.

Madonna L Ryan-Gorner

First time visiting. Friendly, helpful staff. Found just what I needed (some special acrylic paint brushes). Lovely display of mostly local artists' work. Particularly loved the display of paintings/prints by Adam Young ( my favourite local artist)!

Jessica McDonald

Staff were very kind and helpful

Lucas Gillingham

Wonderful art/artist supply shop with huge selection of paints, tools, and mediums. Also have a small gallery with local works. Their framing jobs are always 10/10, with the best custom ordered frames in the province and extremely competitive prices. Definitely recommend.

krista smith

Love this store!!!! The art work they sell is beautiful and they have pretty good sales on there supplies sometimes. The ladies who work there are really nice and helpful

Michael Stephenson

My wife went for paint supplies and the staff member showed her all options from beginner (inexpensive) to professional quality. They let her make her own decisions and didn’t only push the most expensive products! Nice place to shop with tons of items to choose from!

Solaris Crestwood

Great selection, friendly owner, not the best prices.

Darien Rowsell

Nice store but no stencil cutting

This is my go-to place for supplies but it's very expensive, they often don't have or know about common products and the staff aren't too knowledgeable about the products. It usually takes some time to get info because they have to ask their manager questions about the products. But they are always very friendly!!

Chad Newhook

Great selection and wonderfully helpful staff.

Livia Power

Went in to look for paints for models. They didn't have what we were looking for but there is beautiful art work, lots of art supplies, they frame art and staff is friendly. I certainly will be back for supplies for my art and crafts projects as the prices seem reasonable as well.

I would recommend this for the art supplies alone, there isn't much selection, and the prices are not great. However this store also has some wonderful local art that is definitely worth seeing/ purchasing.

The AutoDidact

Great prices and super friendly staff!

Tom King

An Artist suggested we go to this location to look at his work and while they have a small room that is called gallery, it is jammed packed with art and you have to move prints to see others. Not a place to get a good view of prints. It is a art supply store with extras. As the young lady working there only told us where the room was she never offered any help, so we browsed for a few min and left again. I am giving this review 3 stars as I did get to see some prints, but it was not because of the organization of the store or any help offered. Sorry!

a well stocked shop

Art Cansel is the cheapest place in town for art supplies I find. The staff is cheery and always very helpful. There's nowhere else in St. John's for art supplies like Art Cansel!!!

Great selection of high end art supplies and the most friendliest staff I have ever met.

Absolutely the finest framing in St. John's. Extremely fair prices (best value i've found in the city, by far), impeccable workswomanship, and the hands down some of the best customer service I've ever come across, in any industry, period. I'd give them 6 stars if I could.

Michael Collingwood
