“Thankyou so much for this, I never win anything! I work as a film Art Director but I buy supplies from you for my wife who paints. I have attached some images of her work rather than examples of my own work (which is all computer generated). Her name is Michelle Wickland-Sims.

If it’s ok, I would rather publicise her work as she makes best use of your art supplies. I am looking forward to see what she creates with the prize!

We have bought art supplies from Cowling & Wilcox since we were at college in London nearly 20 years ago. Using your website means we can still buy from you even if we aren’t in Soho anymore.”
