The Ultimate Gifts for Artists

With all art bestows on us, we also bestow on others. An artist’s ability to harness and engage with materials, capturing untapped emotion, triggering thoughts and challenging perceptions, is surely one of the most compelling and magical phenomena of existence. When we create, we share our souls, uplifting and enriching the world around us.

But what to give the artist? Sometimes the biggest inspiration is found in the most unexpected places - a unique tool we’ve not been bold enough to use, a special material with an extraordinary story, a boutique brand or bespoke product we might not treat ourselves to… Unlocking the fun of discovery, reshaping creative perceptions or stimulating new ideas, are some of the greatest gifts we can offer each other.

We checked in with some of our greatest assets – our Opus Staff members, each of them avid artists – to find out what their ultimate gift would be! Watch the video to get great gift ideas for creatives, whether there's an artist on your shopping list, or you're looking for something special for yourself. Keep the inspiration and creativity flowing!

Great ideas! I wish my local art shop was as well-stocked as Opus and that the staff was as engaging as your team.

Great video! My favorite part is the Copic markers on the lift 😄Can I please get the details about the green…long vest-type garment that the 7th staff member is wearing (the one who recommended the tabletop easel)? It looks warm and very functional!
