Adur Art is a UK-based online resource created to help artists — from complete beginners to seasoned professionals — find the best paints, brushes, and materials for their creative practice.

Our mission is simple: to provide clear, honest, and practical reviews of artist supplies so you can make informed purchasing decisions without wasting time or money.

We focus on the products that matter most to painters in the UK, including:
