wybnormal oh, great to know. I have been to Michael's store but I felt like they are more expensive than other stores. I do buy home items, colors, and canvas in bulk at Blick or Michaels. Ken Bromley Oil Paints have a similar consistency to the thicker Bob Ross oil paints. Many people also use Daler Rowney Georgian Oils, or Winsor & Newton Winton. Have you ever heard people at Michael's store chuckling about the price match policy? If you buy a qualifying item on Michaels.com, then find the identical item for less at Michaels.com, as an eligible online retailer, in a Michaels printed or digital ad, you can match that price and then beat it by 10%.
