Valentine’s Day is a special time to show your loved one how much you care. If your significant other is a sketch artist, why not surprise them with a thoughtful gift that will help them create beautiful works of art? In this article, we are recommending some gift ideas for your significant other that are sure to be a hit.
A high-quality sketchbook is an essential tool for any artist. Look for one with a thick, durable cover and high-quality paper that can handle a variety of mediums such as pencils, pens, and watercolors.
Our recommendation is Nostalgie Sketch Pad 190 G/M2, Drawing Block as it offers the aforementioned attributes, especially with its high-quality heavy paper of 190 G/M2.
Some other desirable features are acid free paper and good size for on-the-go sketches. You cannot go wrong with this sketchbook as a valentine gift.
Whether your loved one prefers fine-tip pens or thick, chunky pencils, a set of high-quality sketching tools will be greatly appreciated. Look for pens and pencils that are made with artist-grade materials and offer a wide range of line widths and textures.
For pencils, we recommend Staedler Premium Watercolor set which we have reviewed extensively in this article.
For pens, we recommend Brite Crown Drawing and Sketing Pens Set as it contains multiple tip sizes with good quality ink making it very adaptable to an artist’ needs. This is a perfect gift for any artist whether inspiring or professional. For any other pens options, we recommend that you go through our 10 best pens for sketching and drawing article.
You can also create a customized sketch box for your loved one. This will require a little more work on your part, but it will surely be treasured as it shows your thoughtfulness and your care.
Not only does it show your loved one that you took the time to select specific items that they will use and enjoy, but it also allows you to personalize the gift with their name, initials, or a special message. The custom sketch box can be filled with their favorite sketching tools and accessories, making it a functional and practical gift that they will appreciate.
A custom sketch box is not only a great gift for Valentine’s Day but also for birthdays, anniversaries, or any special occasion. It shows your loved one that you understand and support their passion for art, making it a gift that they will treasure for years to come.
There are some companies/websites where you can buy customised sketch box such as Sketchshop and SketchBox.
Or you can choose to create one yourselves, by getting a mix of sketchbook, pens/pencils, watercolor that your loved one currently use (or would love to use).
Whatever gift you choose, be sure to show your loved one how much you appreciate their passion for art. A thoughtful Valentine’s Day gift will be cherished and used for many years to come.
