About Art Alternatives

Launched in 2000 and specializing in art surfaces including over 350 sizes and styles of canvas and panels, as well as black books and 1000+ other creative tools and supplies. Art Alternatives is available nationwide at independent art stores and online.

Our mission is to make artistic expression affordable for anyone who feels inspired to do it!
