Gordon Harris offers New Zealand's
largest range of artists' materials from beginner to professional
quality.
>Easels
A beautiful easel becomes an artist's
life long companion. The passion, creative spirit and expertise
applied to the design and manufacture of artists' easels
by the Italian company Mabef is
unsurpassed. From Table to Studio there is a Mabef easel
to suit your needs.
We also stock the Expression economy range of easels which are made in China.
>Paints
Leading brands of oils, acrylics and watercolours
are represented including: Winsor & Newton, Pebeo, Golden, Schmincke, Old Holland,
Art Spectrum, Matisse, and Atelier. A large selection of
mediums, mortars, varnishes, spirits and solvents complement
these ranges.
>Brushes
The brush is the extension of the artist's
hand. It is an essential tool, as important as the paint.
At Gordon Harris you will find The Right Brush for the Job. So whether you need a round, flat, filbert,
fan, comb, liner, stencil, oval, mop or a dagger
stripper our knowledgeable staff can assist you in your selection.
>Drawing Media
To support the many different drawing
techniques we carry a full range of graphite pencils and
sticks, coloured pencils, water-soluble coloured pencils,
charcoals, pastels, conte' crayons, pens and inks.
>Surfaces
Canvas is still the most widely used painting
support and at Gordon Harris we stock an unrivalled selection
of stretched and primed canvas with ranges that are easy
on the budget through to individually crafted gallery quality
in cotton or linen. If you prefer to stretch and prepare
your own canvas we carry high quality wooden stretcher bars,
a range of canvas off the roll, canvas-straining pliers and
a variety of gessos. For oil and acrylic painting we also
stock canvas panels, various boards and papers. A custom
canvas stretching service is now available at Gordon
