Hong Kong Art Supplies Professional

The first time I got to know this snug art supply store tugged beneath the foot bridge connecting Fa Yuen Street to Mong Kok East (KCRC Mong Kok station back then) was when I needed some Copic Markers for my school works. Not a lot of places sells these expensive marker pens (well, to a poor student, at least), let alone one that allows you to order the the spray-​paint mount that turns each Copic marker into an Air Brush, how novel (back then again)!
From this story, you get the idea, Arts Supplies is the one that you can find more ‘exotic’ type of unconventional art wares. Most of the times when I can’t find the stuff at other shops (well, I look at other shops first usually ‘cos it isn’t exactly the cheapest around town), or when I needed something that is going to be phased out soon — and hence the need to stock up your favourite weapon– you know how frustrating that is. I often can find all those here, probable because it stocks up quite a bit itself too!
Physically, the shop itself is so cramped that you can hardly move when there are more than a few customers inside. So this isn’t the place you want to just hang around and browse through stuff leisurely. It’s a grab and go shop for sure. The best bet is to know what you want exactly, the preferred brand and ask the shop keeper. They have amazing memory and can locate the stuff you look for within a minute or two, without the need to check the computer for stocks. Sometimes they can also tell you outright that a product is discontinued and recommend a close alternative to your choice, excellent service I’d say~~
