Hidden gem in this shopping center! They truly have anything and everything you need to crack open a sketchbook and start finding your artistic side. Wonderful customer service and overall great variety, brads, and prices! Will definitely return to get more watercolor supplies!!
I Went in for the first time and was pleased to find they have a very large assortment of professional grade supplies. The associates Josh and Claire were both very welcoming and helpful. Thank you both for giving me your time and being so knowledgeable about your products. I will definitely be returning to this location.
My favorite store in Richardson. These people know their stuff and price things fairly. Way better than Hobby Lobby or Michaels.
I prefer this Asel location over the downtown Dallas store based on employee interaction. Both stores have a good selection of products, but I feel more comfortable at the Richardson location. The store is larger and the people are helpful without being arrogant.
CORRECTION: The Prismacolor Verithins that I purchased were not shattered. The cores were not centered to a significant degree. This is no fault of Asel.Excited to find open stock Prismacolor Verythins. Great place to go if you use only specific colors, as I do. Unfortunately, of the three ultramarine verithins I purchased yesterday, two had shattered leads inside the pencils. I realize you cant control when customers drop pencils, but it is still disappointing since I drove from Denton. Ill still be back. Maybe next time Ill have better luck
We have been so excited to visit this store but havent been able to because of COVID. My sister is an artist so we do our best to provide her with what she needs. We definitely will stick with Amazon vs this store. I will recommend working on customer service, at least the clerk we got was just rude and annoyed and didnt offer any help or in information for a refill for copic pens. Our clerk was Lauryn. I do not recommend, big let down with service.
I like how I wanted an assortment of colors and in this rainy day the 3 man crew(2 women &1 man) all helped get me to an affordable set! I really like saving and appreciated the staff for that!
They always have such incredible service and are very easy to talk to. You can tell they really care about their customers! 10/10 would recommend!
The young people who work there are so nice and helpful! Great job hiring them!
Really cool and knowledgeable staff! As soon as I walked in I was greeted and helped by a staff member who was an artist herself. She was able to give me firsthand experience about the products which I had no clue about since Im really fresh to the art world.
Great source for art supplies.
Cool store with friendly and knowledgeable staff.
Your classic art store. I always find some great deals here, especially in the clearance and canvas sections. I also always find at least 1 art supply that I didnt know wexsisted but I cant live without. Definitely highly recommended.
A bit pricey but there are some good finds. Quality is great
Wonderful art store with a great selection. Affordable too.
If you are a painter or a sketch artist, this place is the bomb. If you are not, this place leaves a lot to be desired. They do not carry any powdered resins, the floor associate said they could order, but the cashier looked at me like i was crazy. Worth checking out before just buying online.
Amazing place to find all the hard to find brushes and over all art supplies!
Very helpful workers!
Its the typically great Asel experience. Everything is kept well stocked and the employees are relaxed and helpful. I can’t imagine being tense in a small art supply store. They also have plenty of discounts and sales. The location is easy to find and usually has plenty of parking. This is my primary art store for a reason.
Asel is a great art store for the professional or aspiring artist looking for better quality products than what can be found at Michaels. That being said it is a little more niche in its selection focusing predominantly on quality painting supplies. I personally feel that that some of the their prices are a little steep but, that might not be a negative to someone else.
They have so much of what I am looking for most of the time and while their selection is huge, it can be very pricey but the quality has never disappointed.
Interesting little store. They have a lil of everything.
Been coming here for about 7-8+ years ! Love how friendly and helpful everyone is towards guests regardless of who is coming in . Always a treat when there are sales.
Employees are helpful. Supplies are well stocked, great variety. I would like the employees to be more knowledgeable. Good location, clean store.
Small but well stocked. Plenty of selection.
Very knowledgeable, helpful employees. Good prices
They employees here are always super helpful and look for ways to give discounts.
The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Great selection of supplies.
Always great service and always willing to help. They even help explain how things work and have a great knowledge on their products. Love coming here.
A lot smaller than its prior Addison address but probably a better location. Discovered this company while in art school. Will be back since its now kinda on my side of town.
Always pick Asel over Hobby Lobby or Michaels if youre looking for traditional art supplies. Asel has a wider, higher selection and generally offers lower prices. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and will even run around the store fetching and bagging items on a long supply list for you. Theyre also somewhat familiar with nearby colleges - one told me that a particular item on my supply list hadnt been sold in over a decade, but that my professor had never removed it and students had looked for it in vain ever since. On top of all that, they have a small (5 or 10%) student discount, a slightly larger teacher discount, and occasional killer sales.
Knowledgeable staff. Good selection of items the big stores dont carry/dont have a lot of.
Good service but could use larger selection of pastels.
Knowledgeable, friendly staff.
We must support our local art suppliers, and Asel earns this support!
This is a serious art store very good selection. We had only been to Hobby Lobby. No more ! Well worth the drive.
WENT WITH A CLIENT...NICE PLACE FOR ALL YOUR ARTSY NEEDS.
Great selection of art supplies! Discounts for RHS students!
Great art store with a good selection of tools and supplies.
They have a lot of varieties of paints and arts supplies.
This store is waaaaayyyyyyy over priced and they will not price match even when someone has it cheaper. HELL the actual maker of the products they sale are cheaper than this place.. Do your homework and shop around you will see they are way over priced
Lots of art supplies, great selection of paints!
Wonderful local art store with knowledgeable and fun employees. They usually have specialized things Im looking for that the big-box stores dont.
So many good quality art supplies
All kinds of supplies you will need for any project prices are great with nice discounts. With a friendly helpful staff will get you the right product for what you are trying to accomplish
Visiting this store is always a fun stress free experience. the employees are helpful finding items and many things like brushes and canvas are frequently discounted.
Great store, great customer service. Always have in stock what Im looking for. Also gives a student discount.
Thank goodness for Azle they are still the best art supplies from everything from scrapbooking to Fine Art with knowledgeable employees who dont sleep at the register who actually interact with the customer
This is my go to art store now. The myths of overpriced and understocked are NOT accurate. They price matched a larger purchase from an online retailer, very knowledgeable staff, friendly to boot.
Excellent specialty shop for artists.
Although it is a relatively small store, they have a good selection of great art supplies, with even some hard to find stuff, but they are pretty expensive - I assume its because they know they have lots of stuff that you cant find in a typical art store.
Asel has alot but not the biggest art supply store I have shopped.
Awesome but expensive
They have some hard to find Illustration boards, and other great art supplies!!
Super cool store. Great prices.
I love their selection of brushes. Great people!
Best selection
Love it, service is great and they have great assortment of art supplies, wish they would ship!
Great staff and good stock
Everything you need.
