Earth Day is Monday, April 22nd. UArt has all kinds of “green” art supplies that are recycled, eco-friendly and environmentally sound.

Earth Day and Mother’s Day are in the Spring, the season that ushers in the “watercolor months”…probably because Spring is always so full of dreamy color palettes of flowers exploding everywhere.

Spring and the lazy days of Summer are the perfect time to break out your art supplies, gather your colored pencils, pens, paints, brushes, and pick out your favorite photos to frame so you can start creating!

You can’t fail – art is what you make it – and whatever you create is an expression unique to you. Gift the special people in your life (including yourself) with something to treasure. An “art basket” full of oils, acrylics, watercolors, paper pads, journals and mini-canvases makes an amazing surprise. Add in a portable easel and you’ll have your own creative muse at your fingertips anytime, anywhere.

UArt has such a huge variety of supplies, frames, gifts and more that if it’s creative, it’s probably here! We pride ourselves on finding and stocking the most environmentally-friendly items possible. We have all kinds of “green” art supplies that are recycled, eco-friendly and environmentally sound. All Strathmore 200, 300 and 400 series pads, as well as their blank cards, are recycled and eco-friendly, and Stabilo makes a lovely series of recycled colored pencils.

So get inspired to make some “earth-smart-art” and create something special for yourself, your Mom, or Mother Earth in honor of Earth Day, and every day : )
