Founded in 1985, Artist & Craftsman's is a small work of art in the Portland area of Maine. At the time, the retail art scene was dominated by independent "mother and pop" stores, which were generally a combination of stationery, hardware and office supplies. Since the Internet is still only a commercial platform, the directory company is also a major player. A&C carved its little corner in northern New England. At the beginning of its foundation, A&C dealt with wholesale distribution, light production, signage, architectural finishes (eg coatings for houses) and exclusive import and distribution of European oil paintings. With the advent of the mid-1990s, Artist & Craftsman's integration of artistic production and distribution began to penetrate areas that were mainly domestic craftsmanship. The major players in the office, stationery and hardware sector (with larger portfolios) have begun to dominate and have drowned small independent retailers.
