10 Things to Consider When Buying a Gift for an Artist

1. Update their tools

Whether this is a set of pencils, brushes, or even a new camera, if the artist you know is working with outdated tools, a great gift to give them is to give them an upgrade!

Make sure you do your research first and get them something they will actually want to use and that is a step up from what they already have. When in doubt - ask!

2. Help them display their best pieces

Some artists have no problem displaying their art, but others are a bit shyer! Help boost their confidence by getting a certain display item that they can use to put up some of their pieces.

This might be a frame or a stand depending on what type of art they produce. This is sure to make them feel really good about themselves and is sure to be very much appreciated!

3. Sign them up for an art class (and join in!)

There is always room for improvement, right? A great idea for an artist is to sign them up for an art class, even if it is just a fun one night class that they can attend and show off their skills while also maybe picking up a few new tricks. To make this gift even better, join in with them!

4. Be careful with technology

There are some really cool sketch and paint technology products out there for tablets, but not every artist wants to go the route of technology!

Be sure you know what the artist in your life likes - if they do enjoy technology, this is a great idea. If they are more of a ‘traditionalist’ it probably won’t be!

5. Help inspire them

Even the most talented artists go through periods of time where they lack inspiration! Thankfully, there are plenty of wonderful books out there that help boost creativity that any artist would appreciate relying on from time to time.

6. Get creative yourself

Seriously! You may not be an artist, but that doesn’t mean you can’t give it a try!

Any true friend or close family member would really appreciate that you spent the time to make them something, even if it isn’t up to the same level skill-wise as the art they can produce!

7. Rely on humor

There are plenty of funny art gifts out there, believe it or not! That can serve as a great theme for your gift, especially if the artist in your life is quirky and has a great sense of humor. The gift of laughter- there’s nothing better!

8. Make their life easier

Being an artist is great, but that means that sometimes things can get pretty messy! A great idea is to get them something that will make their life in some way easier.

From unique brushes to pans that more easily hold paint or move with you, there are a lot of ingenious ideas out there that any artist will certainly appreciate.

9. Turn to history

Any true artist will have an appreciation for art history, and that gives you plenty of ideas! Do you know their favorite artist?

Look up some cool history books or movies or other related items and give that as your gift - it is sure to be their new favorite!

10. Help them relax their muscles

Have you tried holding a paintbrush all day? Guess what - it makes your hand tired! If you know a full-time artist that suffers from hand cramping, a great idea is anything that will help their hands and hand muscles relax. Not only will it feel great, but it will also get them back to painting much quicker!
