Do you have an artsy teen girl who is always drawing, coloring, and creating something for herself, friends or her room? This gift guide has fun ideas to inspire even more creativity!
I had my budding teen artist help me create this gift guide. It was fun to have her tell me what she loves about each item and why it’s essential for creating art.
Now I also have a great list of art items I know she would love to receive as a Christmas gift. If you are struggling with trying to figure out a great gift for the artsy teen girl in your life I know this will help you out!

Gift Ideas For Your Artsy Teen Girl
1) Posca Paint Pens
Your teen or tween artist will want to add her creativity to more than just a piece of paper. These paint pens make it easy for her to put her creation on notebooks, shoes, picture frames, mirrors and more.
2) Ohuhu Markers
These are my teen daughters new obsession! She uses these markers multi times per day to add color to her cartoon drawings. With so many colors it makes shading an easier task for her.
These are the more affordable alternative to Copic markers, and while Copic has more toned-down neutral colors, they are also much more expensive for virtually the same product. Ohuhus come with a canvas zipper-bag that can be a permanent case for the markers, while Copics only come with temporary plastic packaging.
Ohuhus are great for creating a completed drawing, calligraphy or just for coloring. There are alternatives to the brush tip, including fine tip, and chisel tip. There is also Ohuhu sketchbooks, fabric markers, gel pens and paint pens.
3) Drawing Pencil Set
Every artist needs a good set of drawing pencils. This set of graphite pencils are perfect for sketching and a full complete drawing.
4) Erasers
Different mediums call for different erasers.
5) Prismacolor Line Art Pens
After making a sketch with pencil your artist may want to make her drawing more permanent by tracing it with a pen. They can also be used for calligraphy and bullet journaling, instead of an expensive fountain pen.
6) Copic Markers
Copic markers are professional brush markers. They have a wider range of colors and tones, and ink refills can be bought so you don’t have to buy a completely new set of markers when the ink runs out. Copic markers are very expensive and should only be purchased by a committed artist who is looking to turn art into a career instead of a hobby.
7) Colored Pencils
Colored pencils are a basic art medium that can be used in many different ways. They are great to use when shading with color and there are many easy-to learn techniques that can add so much to a drawing or sketch.
8) Sketchpad / Sketch Book
Your artist can never have too many sketchpads. With daily creativity they will go through a lot of paper. There are many different types of sketchbooks and sketch pads, and depending on the type of mediums she will be using you should look for a specific type of paper.
Thicker, smoother paper is better for alcohol based markers, like Ohuhus and Copics. Rough paper is better for oil pastels or chalk.
9) Complete Artist Kit
If your teen girl is still trying to decide her favorite way to create then an art kit is a great idea. It comes colored pencils, oil pastels, watercolor cakes, Wax Crayons, Mixing trays, drawing pencils, paint brushes, sharpener, ruler, eraser, Sketch Book, Watercolor Paper Pad, Drawing Sketch Pad, Brush Set, Plastic Palette & Color Mixing Wheel. Endless opportunity for creativity.
10) Drawing Board
Artist creations can happen anywhere. This drawing board makes it easier and provides a portable space to draw.
Storage
11) Tiered Rolling Cart
Keep your teen girls art supplies organized with this 3 tier rolling cart. It can easily be stored in her room.
12) Artist Tote Bag
For on the go creation have this tote full of all her basic art supplies.
