talking shop ..................................... Cass Art A big draw for artists Who have your main customers been so far? The bulk of our customers have been art students and professional artists, who used to have to go up to London to buy their materials. We’ve had fewer amateur artists so far, but we’re hoping that will grow over time. One of the things which makes Cass Art unique is that everybody who works in one of our shops is an artist, and we all have different specialist areas; in this shop we have a portrait artist who specialises in oil paints and a textile designer who knows all about our fabric products. Which area do you specialise in? I do (very amateur) watercolour. During the last year or so I’ve been getting back into it. I did A-Level Art and worked in architecture for several years. I live in Lancing so I can go onto the Downs really easily and sit and paint, or I’ll take photographs and go back home to paint in the warm lounge. Have you had a chance to try out any new products since you opened? One of the newest products we’ve ordered in are these watercolour brushes, which are great. They can give off broad strokes and thin strokes, and they have a little reservoir of water, so the harder you squeeze, the more water comes out. Some of them come with the colour already in them, so when they run out you can buy more paints and refill them with whatever colours you like. How is Cass settling into Brighton? Pretty well, we’re sponsoring the central trail of Artists’ Open Houses next month, and we’re hoping to partner with Hove Plinth and Snowdogs by the Sea. In the coming weeks we’re going to start holding artists’ coffee mornings, where we’ll invite local artists to come and talk about their work, like an open forum. Different things work for different people, so the idea is to give professional artists the chance to speak and ask each other questions. What do you do to cater for the large student community in Brighton? We have two new student ambassadors assigned to this store – and a total of 48 across the country – who give us feedback on what’s going on in the universities and what types of products students are looking for. And being an art student can be really expensive, so we have a price guarantee which means that if you can find our products cheaper anywhere else, including online (apart from on eBay or Amazon) then we promise to match them.
