I clicked on this site, on my side bar
an ad on my Face Book page
a "live" on-line give-away
for a paint easel and supplies to paint outside
everything included!
My dream is to do that someday this summer.
I need the right equipment so I will save up for it and buy it, when I have enough.
 |
| This is what the easel is like that I tried to win during the live give-away painting not included, I don't think |
So I took part in the give-away ...
and it was so fun to try to win the easel.
It was a "live" thing and everyone chatted back and forth.
Some funny artsy people from all over the USA!
and numbers and names where picked and announced.
You had to be present online in the discussion group,
so it took awhile before someone won.
The very sweet man, David, running the promotion,
has an art store and he sells art supplies on-line too.
He said it is the first time trying this give away idea.
It seemed very popular
about 5-6 hundred likes

David was kind and commented on everyones posts to his site
and answered every question quickly.
a week ago I decided that I needed some palette knives
so I ordered a set from his store online.
He was offering a discount to the people that took part in the giveaway.
I used pay pal so I did not get the discount.
I messaged that to David and ...wow! he immediately took care of it
refunding the proper amount for the discount
When my palette knives arrived today..
I had a great surprise!

David gave me a great set of palette knives
and a whole bunch of assorted paintbrushes
( I love paint brushes) can't have too many.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I can't wait to see what you do with your new (beautiful) art supplies.
Have fun!!!

Well that was very nice of him. I bought a similar easel for an art class I took last year. I did not finish the class but display favorite oil paintings on the easel. I hope you get your easel soon.
Great story!
How wonderful! Doesn't it make you feel special when someone values you and gives more than you expected! It makes the world a better place to live and it will come back to him! Very nice! ♥
That's wonderful. If he keeps that up, his business will no doubt be a roaring success. Who wouldn't want to support somebody like that?
Lucky you! I'm still waiting for my order of canvas that I purchased from them and that was about a month ago! They sent it to the wrong address and refuse to correct the situation, won't respond to voicemail or emails. So I left polite questions on their FB page about my missing order and they were removed and I also was removed from their FB page. On the 16th of May we filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau and they have 14 business days to respond, so far nothing from David or Mark... Next step will be the CA Attorney General's office if they fail respond to the BBB complaint.
When you paint everyday you need canvas... I would NEVER order from them ever again because of their refusal to communicate.
