Think, for a second, if you could name one essential product or tool that you could not do your job without.

It’s a tough question, but it’s particularly difficult to answer if your work relies on your creativity and artistic skill. Have you ever thought about what type of oils a famous painter favors, or what kind of plaster works best? Or, perhaps, if sinking money into expensive brushes or paper is even worth it?

Given that prominent artists today are celebrated for their ideas and execution, we’re more likely to pick their brains for their motives and meaning behind their work, rather than their preferred brand of oil pastel, or which household item is integral to their practice. We savor the details of artists’ inspirations and processes, but we rarely know about the traditional art materials and offbeat objects that they love the most. So, we decided to find out.

We asked a smattering of artists—from deft painters and sculptors to new media innovators and conceptual masters—to tell us about their favorite art materials, and how they’ve propelled (and in some cases, even inspired) their practices. While many have clear preferences, others asserted that their work does not rely on a single item, or mentioned objects that you’d never find in a art supply store. Below, we share their responses, ranging from beloved paint tubes to a homemade concoction inspired by the chemical makeup of the human body.

Few painters work quite so sculpturally as Gina Beavers. The secret ingredients behind her weighty, textural paintings—often of mounds of junk food or make-up tutorials—are two products from the artist-owned New York City paint shop Guerra Paint and Pigment. For a decade, Beavers has been using Acrylic 65—“a super high-quality acrylic that is highly adhesive,” she noted—and Thickener #1, which is used to thicken acrylic paints. “I combine the two to build up the thick surfaces of paint that I use in my paintings,” Beavers said.

Few painters work quite so sculpturally as Gina Beavers. The secret ingredients behind her weighty, textural paintings—often of mounds of junk food or make-up tutorials—are two products from the artist-owned New York City paint shop Guerra Paint and Pigment.

The East Village paint shop’s proprietor, Art Guerra, originally developed these formulas. An artist himself, he had a studio in the same building as Beavers in Bushwick. “One day, he brought me some to experiment with, and I was hooked,” she recalled. “I had been looking for a way out of the super-flat, hard-edge abstractions I had been making, and the acrylic arrived at the perfect time.”

Winsor & Newton Artists’ Oil Color in Olive Green (Permanence A, Series 2)

Sanam Khatibi creates alluring figurative paintings—allegorical works that portray human figures succumbing to primal desires—where rich blues and greens and soft browns and seafoams set the tone. The artist noted that she often tries out new oil colors and brands, but within her distinct palette, a certain olive green has been a constant for around five years.

“I use this color in practically every single one of my paintings,” Khatibi said. “It has become a sort of base for me, and I use it also as a foundation to create other colors.”
