About Us

We like to think that we provide art students, designers, and art enthusiasts a smarter and sustainable way to use their available materials and create pieces and artworks that make you proud.

We take our product research seriously. In 2021 we started thinking about how to lead a sustainable life, and looking at the different resources we have around. Still in 2022, our research took us to the very physicality of materials, and sometimes we felt a bit like a chef artist-chemist.

This 2023, we are starting it looking to grow, this year is for learning more about materials and their particularities, getting the most out of old paintings, oil, acrylics, watercolor.

Once again, we are ever so grateful to our readers. We are committed to thinking about art in a holistic way, in par with the chemistry, the reactions, and looking for ideas on how to use the materials we have had stored for such a long time. Thank you so much for reading Sustain The Art; let 2023 be a bright one!
