Preston Arts Center

Preston Arts Center The Preston Arts Center is the local, family owned and operated art supply in Louisville, KY. The business opened in 1941 as Preston Paint and Wallpaper.
(301)

The store's focus was obvious, but there were always at least a few art materials in the store for signwriters to layout and execute their work, but also artists oil paints and materials for their use during the off-season. After a devastating fire in the late 70s, Roena and Andy were ready to retire. They handed the reins over to Don and Kathy, who owned the store for 40 years and still work in the business today.

When choosing the right marker, the intended outcome for the piece is very important information we might need to know.

Will your piece be hung in a harshly lit environment? With lots of fluorescent lights or sunlight?

Or will your piece hang tight in a sketchbook, to be exposed a meager handful of moments for intentional photography or scanning?

If it’s the former, spring for the pigmented markers, they’re lightfast and won’t fade easily under almost any conditions. Pigmented marker work will last a lifetime!

If it’s the latter, get the dye-based markers in all their many-colored glory!!!!

Dye-based colors are easier to produce in a variety of shades and hues, while pigmented markers are for work that will last a lifetime!
