Celebrate a Friend’s Boundless Creativity with These Thoughtful Artistic Gifts

What would we do without creative people in the world? Things would be a whole lot less colorful that’s for sure. If you have a friend who is unafraid to push the boundaries and enjoys creating in any way they can—whether it’s painting, drawing, building, or another form—that creativity is worth celebrating. Here are a few fun and thoughtful art gifts to give your maker and creator friends, either for an occasion like a birthday or just because you were thinking about them.

Find Inspiration in Other Artists

Art serves many purposes, but for creative types, art from other artists can help provide inspiration. If your favorite artist friend is moving into a new place, you can help them decorate with a couple of new wall art pieces for their home. Even if they are staying put for a while, changing it up by hanging new art on the walls could be what they need to continue pushing the boundaries of their creativity.

Decorative Serve Ware

We all have to eat, and when your creative friend hosts impromptu get-togethers or more formal dinners, they’ll be so grateful you gifted them a set of decorative serving pieces. Items such as platters, plate sets, or even stemless wine glasses are always useful and can help bring the whole experience together. Consider your friend’s preferred style of art—whether it’s floral or more abstract—and look for pieces that will match their aesthetic that they can use for years to come.

Gifts That Lift the Spirit

Being an artist or following a creative path isn't for everyone as the lifestyle comes with its own set of challenges. Be it writer's block or another demotivating factor, artists can use a little pick-me-up from time to time. To help, you should look into gifts that will lift their spirits and encourage them to press forward as they seek inspiration for their next masterpiece. Whether it’s a picture depicting growth or a thoughtful message to help them stay motivated, lift their spirits and encourage them to explore their creativity even further.

Artful Sculptural Figures

As an artist, they likely enjoy celebrating the work of fellow creatives. So consider gifting them sculptural figures from artists like Susan Lordi of Willow Tree® to provide them with hope, inspiration, and to fill their heart with joy. Lordi’s artful figures are unlike any others as they are expressionless—instead, she uses their body posture and gestures to tell the full story, one left open for personal interpretation. You can find Lordi’s artwork and the work of other artists in the form of sculptural figures for a variety of occasions. The handcrafted aesthetic of an artful sculpture will fit right into their workshop or studio.
