Are you 'etching' to do some art? Then Greyfriars is the place for you.  I went into Greyfriars Art Store looking for a birthday present for a creative friend, but without knowing the first thing about art supplies. The shop assistant, Jenny, was very helpful and did not mind my asking for advice on different materials, in fact she was very knowledgeable without being condescending. It turns out there are a lot of different supplies!\nThe shop sells everything an artist could need, from paints to charcoals, pencils to pens, canvases and all sorts of paper. She gave me a few different options, after steering me away from my initial idea of charcoal (he'll already have it) we agreed on ink pencils, which to be honest were something I never knew existed. Mainly because of their patience and expertise, Greyfriars is to be commended, especially if you are a beginner or if you are buying for someone else, but also more than adequate for the accomplished artist. From my perspective, the shop made a great impression.
