Artist Supply Near The Villages

[ewstanley]

Does anyone know of an artist supply store near The Villages?
We will eventually move down there (from Michigan) in the next few years.
I am hoping that I will be able to continue my hobby down there.
I saw a Michael's and Hobby Lobby online near Ocala and was wondering if there was anything a little closer.
Thanks for any information.

I too am looking for a place closeby to buy art supplies. Kits with small tubes of acrylics are sold at Walmart. Also water colors with small cakes or tubes. I have been told that there is an art supply store in Leesburg, but I haven't located it yet.

I have been buying my supplies online at "Cheap Joes" or bringing a supply when I come for the winter. We came down just for four weeks this time, to return North for Thanksgiving and Christmas and I have sketched in a canvas I had here and no way to paint it. The little tubes at Walmart aren't enough to cover this big canvas. JoAnn's fabric doesn't carry the kind of supplies I need either.
