Printing & Art Shops
Photography/Printing shop
I found a great shop at Maju Junction on my way to the parking area after having a meeting with Elina yesterday. The shop is called Profoto. Profoto offers photographic printing services (using giclee method) besides conducting workshops and seminars. Their prints are produced on high-grade canvas or paper in large (wide) format, utilizing archival inks which are meant to last for generations. If you are looking for digital printing on canvas, they provide the ideal solution. In addition to canvas, they offer a number of high quality fine art photo papers used by international fine art and commercial photographers.
They also provide framing services including gallery wrapped (stretched) canvas. Check them out:

Salam Emila,
Although I’m new here I found out that you have a great interest in art! I like it too but because of my limited time..I have to forget it for the time being π
keep it up friend!
richyreens
Emila I have a few questions…. β
1. Canvas dekat mana yang murah dan kualiti, atau semua canvas kualiti sama.
2. Berus lukisan, ada jenama tertentu atau beli saja di kedai alatulis.
Tengah nak buat scrapbook in canvas ni π Thanks dear π
emila
Cool! This is a good place for quality photo printing.
emila
Salam Natrah! Hope you’ll find the time soon, it’s fun; maybe you can do some arts with your children!
emila
If scrapbook on canvas, I think any canvas will do. I suggest you use acrylic because it dries fast. Youβll need stiff-bristled brushes for thick paint and soft-bristled brushes for watercolor effects. You can also use filbert because if you use just the tip you get a narrow brush mark, and if you push down you get a broad one.
You can get the stretched canvas (already mounted to a frame) at Win’s and also Craft Haven.
richyreens
Thanks Emila
Just came back from CM, bought one stretched canvas 12″x12″ for RM19.90 and some acrylic paint. Eyeing for prismacolor but darn expensive π
Tonight I’ll go to Craft Haven, hope I can find something overthere. π
emila
How much are they selling the Prismacolor? I bought one at CM before for RM170 but found out that Win’s Art & Stationery sells at RM160. I bargained with the aunty and got it for RM140! Much more cheaper! I love the aunty la!
richyreens
Selling price is RM164 but they give me RM150.
Wah Aunty jual murah.
emila
Itulah dia! Nanti kalau ada masa pergilah berkenalan dengan aunty itu!

Hello…
Fyi, there’s another place you can get the whole range of moleskine notebooks. If you frequent Bangsar or Kanjang, there’s a bookstore name of CZipLee. It’s at the corner opposite Bangsar Village and Hong Leong Bank.
Cheers!

Hey would you happen to know of a shop which sells lino sheets?
For lino printing, printmaking.
Would really appreciate it if you knew of one
Thanks!
emila
Win’s Art sells those sheets. I heard they have moved one floor up, the address shown above is old address.
christine
hi emila, heard that you are a caft person, do you know where can i find loew cornell brushes ?
emila
hi christine! i am not so sure. I actually just buy any brushes. But you can check at Craft Haven or Win’s Art. Craft Haven is at One Utama New Wing (2nd floor at connecting bridge to the old wing) while Win’s Art is at Taman Megah near the old Lim Kok Wing. I have the address here somewhere in my blog; just find the ‘creative shop’ categories in my sidebar, ok!

WinΓ’β¬β’s Art & Stationery Suppliers tu dah closed down ke?
Tan Geok Pin
Hi I was reading the art store where you get your supplies from, am wondering if they have prismacolor colorpencils? I am having a hard time looking for replacements for my colorpencils and am running short on few colors.
emila
The shop that I used to get my prismacolor is Win’s Art. But the shop has been closed due to recent passing of the owner. Maybe you can try Central Square, the one beside Central Market. I heard they sell Rembrandt’s watercolor too!
Tan Geok Pin
thanks emilia for the prompt reply. also thank you for the heads up in the closing of the store. I actually reside in penang. so if I go all the way to kl and only then found out the store is closed then it will really be a bummer. Rembrandt’s watercolor, wow do you know whether it cost a bomb or not? :o) I used mainly windsor and newton watercolor and also graham. not sure if you hv heard of graham. not very popular here… I can’t help but to notice the price stated for prismacolor is around rm150. is it for the whole 120 pencils set?
emila
Rm150 is for the 48 colors only!!
Tan Geok Pin
hi Emila, thanks. one final question, do they sell the colorpencils open stock? Ah rm150 for 48 colors.

Winβs Art & Stationery Suppliers sudah open back ke.. just asking, because i need prismacolor graphic marker. that brand hard to find la.
emila
Ben, no la. This entry was written few years back. You can get the colors from Art Shop in Taman Melawati or the shop in Central Square, just besides Central Market.
Yasmin
I am really in need of Prismacolor Premier Color Pencils. But i cant seem to find them. Do you know any elsewhere to find them? Tq
emila
You can try one art shop at Central Square, near Central Market. I forgot the name of the shop but you can never miss it. THe 48 colors is about RM190. Else you can go to Petaling Street, there’s a shop call Nanyang Art Shop. Few shops before Nanyang, there’s another shop. Else…. you can got to Taman Melawati. There’s an art shop called The Art Shop. It’s near the MIA area.

Hi emila. Thanks for your good info. I just want to ask you do you know how much is the latest price for prismacolor color pencils? Is it still available at CM? Thanks…
