Blick Art Materials

Artists Paradise!! Plus, super cool Octo en el bano🐙!! Staff is happy, helpful, knowledgeable, plus knows their store, inventory and cares for the customers - I actually felt welcome!! Was my first visit to a Blick Art Materials, store, ever, and look forward to experiencing more and more!! Thanks Blick!

My kids loves this store. This time we stopped by this location still great inside has lots of art supplies. One thing that I don’t like was no parking lot for customers down the basement. Only street parking which was inconvenient.

I drove from Long Beach and it was absolutely worth it. My fiancée introduced me to Blick and I am in art heaven! This place has practically everything you could possibly need as an artist. Pens, pencils, markers, highlighters, canvases, sketch pads, paint, the list goes on and on. I bought a ton of stuff and I will be coming back for more, that's for sure.

If I die and get to go to heaven, I am going to ask the bus driver to stop at Blick so I can load up on supplies. I will unload my haul at the gates and wait for all the cool kids (aka the creatives) to come meet me. I will let them use all of my markers, paper and paint in exchange for their advisement on how to best decorate a proper heaven. Until then, I rely on the incredibly helpful staff at Blick as tour guides to my life's aspirations.

Staff was very rude to my daughter. Went in to purchase a new set of natural hair brushes, canvas, and paint. My daughter needed to use the restroom, which the staff refused to allow her to do without a purchase first. I asked if we could use the restroom so that we could shop unrushed and without looking up just repeated that we must make a purchase first, or we could not use the restroom. To not allow a child to use the restroom in general is distasteful at best. To run off a potential customer on top of that is pretty bad business. I took my daughter to use the restroom across the street and took my $500 somewhere the staff aren't so rude. Have spent thousands at this store, but won't any longer. Terrible customer service, and the prices at this location are too high anyway.

Great art supply store in Los Angeles. They have a wide variety of art supplies from clay to paint. The staff is very helpful and they’re always stocking up the store. If you’re looking for a a deal, there’s a clearance section in the back. There are hand sanitizer bottles at the entrance and at the cashiers counter as well as tape on the floor to help with foot traffic. They have a parking lot under the building and there’s also plenty of street parking around.

I love coming down to this store but today I was harassed by a manager while shopping. She wasn't knowledgeable in the item we were looking for. On other occasions I have had other workers nicely help us and locate the stock on the computer. She showed us the aisle where the products were located and proceeded to hover over my partner and I the WHOLE time we were looking over the products. She stayed silent and just stood there, it made us very uncomfortable... This store can't use the excuse of being helpful because it was obvious she was just following us around thinking we would steal. Fortunately I was helped out later by a really sweet worker named Maxine and she checked us out.

Art Supplies Galore. Paint, pastels, canvas, brushes, glue, wood and more. Love this place. Staff is super-friendly and helpful. Wear your mask and help protect staff. Free Parking [tight garage, limited parking. You might get blocked in.]

I love a good art supply store. Dick Blicks are always good. This one is so much nicer than the one in Pasadena. When we walked in I could see gallery art on the walls. How nice! They had a huge selection of gifty type toys and funky things beside all the good art supplies. I bought done marbled paper, calliope's and some cool postcards.

If you place an order for store pickup they do not respect the online price and will charge you as much as 50% more for the same items. Service is poor and they will try to convince you the price is the same but numbers don't lie. Crazy town

Feeling Fall creative and wanted to pop in to this little big spacious Art Supply store for some new drawing essentials. I found plenty including some post "back to school bargains"... really just a lot of good deals at Blick Art Materials...aka B.A.M.! Buy more, save more! Their clearance and current sales are wonderful. Additionally you can place orders for pickup and/or for delivery/shipping (free shipping on orders of $59 or more... so go wild). Aside from an endless art tools, supplies, and beyond... Blick caries some great gift items and sets for painting, drawing, molding and even fun games, puzzles as well as miscellaneous items.... Definitely have seen some fun things for my niece and nephews as the holidays approach. Ringing up is super smooth, friendly and helpful. I signed up for their Preferred Customers Program (which I recommend), even better if you're a frequent shopper. Teachers and students get an extra 10% purchases! Q Tip: I can't speak much for parking from a personal experience perspective as I've only been here twice and both times gone green on the Metro, however it's a mix of city and residential streets (metered stuff or limited/restricted street parking) surrounding the corner of Beverly Blvd/Poinsettia Place, where Blick Art - Los Angeles/Fairfax resides... Some more business based parking behind the building (read signs for restrictions). I know they do have their own private underground parking lot just off Poinsettia. I believe it's free for customers (presumably with a respectable limit for shopping), not sure how big it is or fast it fills up, but did see some reviews mention it being at capacity on weekends.

Nicest people working here. So many staff members and each one smiled and asked to help me in the oil paint aisle. Good prices. Huge selection of art supplies. I would go back just for the customer service!

Great place for art supplies. Many brands in stock personally stopped by for grease markers and paint markers. Christina was able to help me locate the last of the Krink mops as well as some Solid Markers and even suggested an acrylic big marker for non run offs. Place is awesome and screams art even while just parking in their parking lot. Awesome place will definitely stop by when I am in LA again. They also have clean restrooms. Customer service is on point!

John is the man. 5 stars. Great shop, Great people who work there. Hope they thrive in business forever.

They literally have everything you need for a Stellar art project. The staff are super on top of knowing where everything is in the store and offering recommendations. Cash wrap is super quick and efficient! They also have their own parking lot in the back so it's convenient to pop right in and out

This is my favorite place Togo for art supplies of any type. I have been going there for years now and I have never been disappointed.

Great selection and nice knowledgeable staff. My go to place. It's easy, clean and well stocked with everything I need.

I ordered 3 Blick Floater Frames and recently received (and returned) them. These were, hands down, the poorest quality frames I have ever seen. They were chipping and the finish was awful. At first I thought I might be able to touch the paint up, but as I looked them over between the chipping and cracking and the awful quality of the finish I realized they were unsalvageable. I resent that I had to spend my time and effort to even open the box, let alone to repack and take it to Fedex. I finally figured out why these white frames were awful. They had been repainted, poorly. When the paint flaked off black was revealed. ? Then I understood: some clown sprayed these black frames white, but they didn't sand or prime the surface. That explained everything. Who does that? I also thought their customer service would be more apologetic. They handled the complaint and the return dispassionately, almost as if they hear it all the time. The pictures are of the frames with the three paintings I once hoped to sink into them. The more you look the more defects you see. I gave up! So.....never again.

Hello! It's me again! I wrote about John and Riley the other time but now I want to add one more AMAZING person: Brenda! Oh my! She knows soooooooooo much and she's funny, caring and makes you feel like you are talking to a friend! She's also an amazing artist! Go check this location cause I feel they have the best ones!!!!

Service, selection, value, this place has it all! Definitely one stop shot for art supplies.

I have been going to Blick Art Materials for since 1990: it's products are best on the market, service is always knowledgeable, helpful, courteous. If they don't have what I need there, they will order. Many locations. Best art store around.

Had literally everything. The people were nice everything is organized good walked straight to what i needed. Never been there before

Blick's Art stores in general are a go-to for my son who likes to stock up on school supplies. They have stores in the Bay Area (i.e., Berkeley), as well as Los Angeles and Fullerton (we've been to both). All of the stores we went to were very helpful and in this case, they didn't have something he needed, but made recommendations, which I appreciate.

I will never go back to this location! Both the assistant managers and the person working the door were some of the most rude people I've ever encountered in a retail setting. And when I tried to address the rudeness all the management did was shake there head instead of acknowledging that there was a problem and apologize! Don't make excuses for your employee's rudeness!!!! Wrong is wrong!!! Don't get an attitude with people for no reason! If you don't want to be at Blick working then find another job. You was not only rude to me, but also to my daughter. Shame on you! We have been going to this Blick store for close to two years, and because of this interaction, never again!!!! It's been almost a month and a half and we have not been back and nor do we want to. I care about good customer service.

I called to see if I could pick up an item locally I saw on their website. According to the site it wasn't available at that location. I asked if it would be possible to have the item shipped there from their warehouse. I was told they didn't do that. The clerk, a very pleasant young woman, suggested she might be able to arrange for the item to be transferred from a location in Utah, I believe it was. She told me she would look into it and call me back the next day, which she did. She was able to arrange the inter-store transfer and I picked up the item a few days later. Next customer service ever for such a modestly priced ($20) item. Well done.

I went to this store for the first time the other day and it's become one of my favorite places! I'm new to the art world, so I had many questions about which I was hoping to chat with one of the employees; and that's exactly what happened! John essentially gave me what felt like a half hour masterclass in watercolor/drawing materials! I wanted to know about the paper, the pens, the paints, the brushes, and he even volunteered information about the pencils that I wouldn't have even known to ask, but turned out to be quite helpful. He was incredibly knowledgable, and seemed genuinely excited about my new journey with painting, giving me information about the materials to make my own decisions about what to buy, but not pushing anything on me. He even told me about their deals on brushes and pens, suggesting I explore with what I have first (and with what I came their to purchase), and then encouraging me to come back and purchase these additional items when I have need of multiple different kinds so as to get a better deal. I will definitely be coming back to this location!

When you buy them from local stores be careful of taking advantage by them, after I look and founds items and prepared to checkout ,a front desk man just symbolized to ask your account while still overcharge you then normal price, while I browsing , a rude service guy coming from nowhere watching me over all the way behind me like I m a thief! and you while you discussed their indicated pricing instructions o ver the phone they even not admit that ,overall ,it was not a good shopping experience I had!

Blicks is one of my my go to stores when looking for art supplies. The associates are all very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They have such a huge selection to choose from and I can browse for hours or just get in and out when I'm looking for something specific. I always recommend them to friends and family.

Have most art materials I need and very often on sale wonderful selection for the artist

Have to say, these guys are great. I always try to shop here, when possible. From the greeting when you walk in the door, to the great cashiers. They always are ready to help. I recently had a project that called for gold leafing and I really knew little about it. The staff was super helpful with advice and the project turned out great!

BEWARE OF BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF! Just had an absolutely horrible experience at the store. 2 days ago came to buy some supplies for a photo shoot and at some point, I assume when I left the counter for a second to grab something, I got extra $180 worth of stuff scanned to my account. Now my absolute bad, cos I was distracted thinking of the said photo shoot and did not check and just paid and did not see it until got the message from the bank, but I doubt the people did not know, since 2 people double checked all my items were in place and helped me pack them (which is also why I let my guard down and because I never had bad experience here before). Point being please be very careful and double check everything at this store, if you are buying multiple items (like multiple canvases in my case) they might try to charge you for stuff you are not getting and then just look you in the eyes and tell it's all fine. When I came back to try to clear it (with the receipt and all the stuff I got) I was just told there is nothing they can do, that manager did my purchase, so obviously a manager can do nothing wrong. They have cameras and could look up stuff, but of course they decided to just not deal with it and said they don't care. Not coming here again, this is not an experience I can afford to have again and not the level of decency that I want in my life. And to think I though this was a safe store for creatives.

I was followed around the store like a thief. It's customary to greet a shopper and offer to help. It's not cool to follow them around a store passive aggressively and never say anything. She just kept staring at me as I was browsing different isles. Even followed me from section to section. I've been coming here for years since art school. Very disappointed in their treatment. I did say something to the cashiers at check out, but they played it off. very uncool. I hope the manager reads this and I will gladly explain in depth what happened. Please train your employees on proper customer service. I'll likely go to the one Santa Monica in the future, or just buy from Amazon. Plenty of other shoppers in the store, but I was definitely singled out.

I really enjoy this smart supply store. It's been recommended for any of my college courses as the place to buy the premium art supplies I need. They offer a wide range of products for different mediums and storage options such as portfolios to carry your work and container cases for your supplies. I've gone here with my parents and my grandmother to purchase supplies and I have never once left disappointed. Having a list of what you need or want is helpful before you go in as there's so many things, you can just ask a staff member to help you find what you need specifically.

I needed to get some art supplies and while I was walking around I noticed a sign for paint markers that said: "mix-and-match buy one get one free. So I looked for black. I found two different kinds of blacks and went to the cash register. While paying for everything I asked the sales person if the markers are being ringed up correctly. I think I got feeling that something wasn't right from her demeanor. So, I checked my receipt when I got to my car. The pens were rang up each at full price minus around $1.60 each. Full price for each one was around $6.95. So I went back up and told the girl. Sorry, these weren't rung up correctly. These are supposed to be buy 1, get one free. She says well you were given discounts one each that must add up to the price of one. I said no way. She turns to another saleswoman and she says, there are supposed to be but one get one free. The other woman says: "oh it says there that black is excluded". I asked where does it say that? He first one asked: well you want to return them? I said not yet. I have to go see where that exclusion is written. So, I went to the pen s and I looked and I looked and I looked and I could not see the sign. So I went back to the counter and the two women had left and other people were coming on. The new guy saw my annoyed face while I was waiting to see who to talk to. This nice salesman said can I help you? I said yes and asked him to show me where it says black pens are excluded. So he looked and looked and looked and went on top toe and took his glasses off and held his face 2"s away from a faded red sign with faded minuscule white font and he said it's written here. I said what's the use of a sign no one can read? This is ridiculous. A sign that you have to read with a magnifying glass is not a legitimate sign. So the short of it is I had to stand in line again to return the two pens and get my money back. Around $12 saved. Ridiculously stupid.

I love supporting Blick and have always got great supplies here. They always have the best service helping me find exactly what I need. Today I purchased 6 clothing dyes and when I got home 5 of the 6 were already opened without seals and used. :/ (see pic) I can buy these dyes at Target for half the price brand new.. definitely returning them. Be sure to always check the products before buying them from blick.

Kristin the Asst Mgr is super nice and very helpful. I came in looking for supplies and she totally helped me out. At no point did i feel rushed or pressured to buy. Thank you Kristin !!!

just left the store with everything we needed. the staff was so helpful. Sandra, Kristina, and Jennifer had the best customer service I've ever experience. I will definitely be back for any last minute items I'll need for my art show next week!!! - Matthew, Madisen and Michael

If you want the staff to treat you with respect, don't go to the brick and mortar. My usual go-to art supply store. I am always overwhelmed by the sheer variety of paint and drawing materials they have, with better prices than most. Their Premiere canvas is excellent, heavy and stretched so tight it almost sounds like a drum. I have used Utrecht oil paint decades ago on a painting commission and it is still fresh and bright. The paint itself was lush and buttery. I haven't tried their Blick Artist's brand acrylic yet. I use Liquitex and Golden. I haven't found a place that have the bargains Blick Art has. I will keep looking out for art supply stores that sell the brand names for cheaper. The printing service, however is terrible. They just grab anyone to work the printing. I had one jerk who knew nothing at all about printers, goof up on several of my pieces that were going to a show. This guy blamed me for using such bright colors on my graphic art. He spent a lot of time sneering at me. The smartass know it all staff always like to put professional artists down, unless they happen to be "famous". BFD. I don't need their condescension. I have been a professional for more than four decades, and they act like I am a hobbyist. . If you are not as big as Kusama, they are going to be jerks. I order online now. Too bad the staff is like that. "Oh, (snicker) you aren't well known, so you put your name on the front of the canvas. ". BS.

Friendly staff, great selection of art supplies, and fun parking garage with murals to inspire you on your way into the store and as you leave. When I'm stumped for a good gift, this is where to go - for kids to adults. And then I might even find something I didn't expect to buy (which is why I avoid wandering in here without a purpose). I came here to look for the same frame I previously bought, and it was out of stock. A helpful staff person gave me some similar options and actually , they are better options for the different colors of the art I am framing next. And this is one of the best places for my Maltipoo mutt-mixed dog to get petted. It's never a quick trip if he comes along. Who knew that art store customers are such dog lovers?

This is the cutest Blick Art in LA. I love this location because of the artwork all over the walls. It is a bit busier than other locations and smaller. Overall great facility that has everything you need. I recommend calling in to check if your product is there. They can put those items on hold for you up to 24 hours. Super cute location near the grove and across MiLK. Parking meters available and a super tiny uncomfortably tight parking lot below. I personally wouldn't feel comfortable parking anything larger than a compact car down there it's extremely tight. It's also the kind of parking where you're blocked in.. street parking is only a dollar for an hour, and it's way more spacious and convenient in my opinion.

The product selection and quality is excellent. I could spend all day, and all paycheck here had it not been for the staff I interacted with (and did not interact with). We live about 80 miles from the nearest Blick and have never been to a physical location. We decided to visit the Beverly Blvd location on Saturday since we were going to be in the area. We easily found parking, and got in the store. We brought a baby stroller with us, but probably should have opted to carry the baby instead. They fit a lot of inventory in a small space, so a stroller is a tight fit around some of the corners. While browsing the store, there were several people working and stocking shelves. The store felt like it was more crowded with people working than customers. I tried to stay out of their way, but was a bit bothered that not one said, "excuse me" or anything when they would try to get around me to wherever they wanted to do work next. I felt like I was in the way no matter where I was. I don't like feeling in the way, so we decided to go ahead and check out. We got in the checkout line and a lady opened a register and called us forward. We went to the counter, handed her our purchase, and she rung us up. I went to hand her cash, and she said her register could not take cash. So I pull out my debit card, I go to insert it into the chip reader, she says the chip reader is not working. I told her, "If you slide instead it will fire a fraud alert." Then she turned the terminal around and took my debit card and started sticking it in and pulling it out of the chip reader forcing it to fail, then slides the card. Declined. Yup, she locked up my debit card. Admittedly, I am frustrated here, but I am not irate or rude. I tell her that she just got my card locked. I ask why she called me up if her card reader is broken and she cannot take cash and she says, "Well that's what I get for trying to help you" and she walks off. The person at the next register calls me over to her and just explains it away as, "we're just really busy right now." She check us out, we paid, we left. Then I spent 45 minutes on hold with the bank who confirmed that it appeared as fraudulent activity and my card was locked. The things that stuck out the most about this experience were how apathetic the staff were to my family as customers and how when a problem was presented at the register, the cashier gave up and walked off and not once did a manager (or at least a real adult) show up to step in and help sort things out or apologize to us. I don't expect employees to kiss my backside and bow down while I am shopping or anything, but I think it is fair to expect people to demonstrate manners.

Keyra and the manager are absolute sweethearts! There's one employee there however who should learn to have a little empathy and not dismiss someone who has a basic request. Have the decency to help someone who is in need of basic fucking assistance. Jerk.

FRAUD, these guys are fraudsters. I brought in my little sister about a month ago to buy her some art supplies for school. When we went to checkout the heavy set guy that was ringing her up took forever. My girlfriend that was with us was buying something at the same time and was able to get checked out faster than us even though she had less items. When the heavy set guy finally finished ringing us up my little sister tried to pay with her debit card. After entering her pin number the employee said that her card did not go through so we had to try it again. Again my little sister entered her code and the employee said it didn't go through. So we tried it again and the employee said it still didn't go through. At this point we had been waiting over 10 minutes, my little sisters card had worked everywhere else we went that day so why didn't it seem to work here? You guessed it they were in the process of committing "FRAUD" against me and me little sister. After the third time they employee said that her card did not go through I went ahead and paid with my card. I even asked the employee you guys didn't charge us twice right? Big surprise...... sure as heck after a week there was still a charge on both of my little sisters card an my card. I called the store to talk to someone and lucky me, the person that had wrung us up that day picked up the phone. After explaining my issue he said he remembered me and said that I would need to talk to his store manager. So then a lady picked up the phone, after explaining to her what happened. She told me that it would be impossible for the register to charge us both and that I needed to wait longer. So I waited another week and both charges were still present even though the store manager insured me this wouldn't be the case. We then contacted my little sisters bank and explained to them what happened and they decided to go ahead and file a charge back against them. However I guess they decided to fight it on their end and the chargback lost. At this point I guess I will have to file a police report and take them to small claims. Thanks Blick! I just wanted to buy my sister some art supplies for school but not we had to pay double because you committed fraud against us. I wont be letting this go so I hope everyone stays away from here before you get taken advantage of as well.

The Blick on Beverly Blvd. in Los Angeles needs help with their customer service. Assistant Manager Christina could have been more helpful. General rule of thumb, if you don't have an item at your location, offer to call your other locations to see if they have them. That small gesture speaks volumes when it comes to helping out customers and helps the company sell more items. I would think an assistant manager would practice great customer service to serve as a model for their team... instead I got cold responses and a general dismissive attitude. If you don't want my business that's fine.

I love this little store! They have all the supplies you can't fine in a commercial paint store. They have an extensive Tempera paint selection that is a life saver when needing to paint something temporarily. They have gallon jugs or smaller containers for small jobs. I have also used their framing services for my artwork. They did a wonderful job. They have a wide selection of framing, matting, and glass to choose from. It's all quality materials. You will pay a quality price. However, your work will be displayed well. Love this little gem of a store.

Very bad customer service. I was told that there would be a 20% coupon at the front desk for me when I called yesterday. The manager on today (Friday July 10) was very rude and not helpful. I had to place an order on line, too bad because I do like to support brick and mortar stores. I should add that the Blick Art supply on Santa Monica blvd, was a completely different experience and I would rate them 5 stars.

I looove this Blick. The murals in the garage make me happy right when I drive in! I went there on a Wednesday at around 11 a.m. and the parking was already pretty tight. I have a feeling that weekdays are the best time to come here. I found all the copic markers, col-erase pencils, and moleskins that I needed. The staff here is super friendly. I love that Blick seems to hire artists, b/c they not only help you locate things--but they usually have opinions on what are the pros and cons of different brands. Even though the store was busy I never had to ask for help, and the people working here just came up and asked what I was looking for. I love that! This place is also great about returning items!

While not a boutique Blick does carry a plethora of special supplies. Good prices, stellar staff. This is an important company for creatives. The West Los Angeles location is well organised and expansive. Support the brick and mortar.

Aside from the very welcoming and friendly staff, the amount of inventory that they have never disappoints. I have never been the type of artist to stick to one media. I use watercolors, india inks, alcohol inks, fine liners, colored pencils and gouache and they always have what im looking for. Great deals for customers with a rewards account!

Pablo is the best!! He is friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. He has helped me with many art projects!! Highly recommend Blick for all your craft needs.

Keyra helped me out and was super great and patient at explaining what pencil and lead I should use based on a photo of a drawing I showed her. Friendly service and good prices!

Blick is my go to place for any art materials. I highly recommend this store because they help you with any question you have and make the process fun every step of the way! Shoutout to Erica for being so helpful and kind. She made sure I got the help I needed from start to the finish!

Thank you Corrine at the framing and print department. She is super helpful. Highly recommend!!

This is one of the best and most reasonably priced commercial art supply store chains in town. They have lots of sales and their staff knows much more about their stock than any other chain. Parking is under the building but its tight. There is street parking - and an AMAZING Italian restaurant 2 doors west.

Nice little store. Saw this store on line and wanted to check it out while I was in the LA area. I was specifically looking for calligraphy supplies. I was very pleased with what I found. It's a small store but they had lots of pen nibs and ink. The staff was very nice and helped with my questions. It was fun to be able to just look around at the various calligraphy supplies. Usually I have to buy everything online!

Let me get this out of the way first. They do have great art supplies. Everything that i need or think i need is always there. BUT, customer service. Utter garbage. I had asked a question, and the associate went to go ask the manager, which was conveniently slopped over on the chair in the back, almost looked like that's her permanent position with her bariatric looking self, im almost surprised it isnt electric. Aside from that, i was wandering the store looking for some supplies so my daughter and i can create stuff and i over hear the associate and manager openly talking negatively about me. They need to know their audience, know where they are located, and not speak about people on the damn sales floor. There were only 2 helpful associates, but unfortunately on this day i just happen to be in where this cracked out looking human was there with that manatee of a manager.

Friendly staff with expert level of information, great location, wide selection of supplies, parking. Everything is good except for price! I found their canvas is way expensive than other stores around L.A or online deals. They charge almost 1.5~2 times. They located in hancock park so I bet their rent is high. so calculate. After going here 5 yrs, I switch to other store to save $ and buy more material with same price.
