FAR BETTER THAN 5 STARS!!!!!

Awesome Everything For Nearly Every Artistic Need!! Blick has the best prices in Las Vegas for almost all art supplies, I've called several places to compare prices. Their staff is polite, very nice/friendly, knowledgable, & always very helpful in every aspect you may need. The last several years (especially while I was in art school) I've spent many hours in several art supply stores all over Vegas & D. Blick has the BEST selection, variety, service, & prices by far, no other store comes close to being nearly as great as this art supply store. I'm financially poor & make all kinds of different art like painting (acrylic, water color, gouache, oils, etc.), fashion design, sculptures, drawing, writing (has best pens & prices), & a variety of other types of art. Having barely any money & an addiction to art I've had to hunt a LOT yet almost always end up buying whatever I need here. Off the top of my head, only things I can think of they don't have that I use are mainly clothing (Hancock's is my favorite for making clothes), chain-mail, & wood-work supplies. I LOVE D. BLICK!!! Keep up all the greatness I love about this store. GREAT JOB!!!! :-) - Note: YP won't let me write full name of store claiming "profanity"

Hot and Cold

I visited this store on Cinco De Mayo and was greeted at the door by a very friendly, helpful young lady who was giving away prizes. They were also playing Gypsy Kings in the background (Happens to be a Personnal favorite). Unfortunatly it didn't just "go downhill", it "Went off a cliff" shortly after. I asked for assistance in getting some Airbrush Paint that was on clearance, the clerk was rude and impatient. Later, as I was perusing the isles, the same clerk was conversing(Gossiping) with another clerk, completely blocking the isle, I backed up and went down the next isle and as I was looking at some paint behind her, she turns and said "I doubt if that paint will be marked down". I guess someone isn't to happy with their career choices, maybe working in an art store in the Ghetto was not what she had planned by age 30, but is it necessary to take it out on the customer?
