Must-Have Tools for Art School Success
Success in art school starts with being prepared, and having a reliable set of tools ensures that students can fully engage with studio assignments and creative challenges. Sketchpads in various sizes, including A3 and A4, are important for daily practice, concept development, and project submissions. Acrylic mediums, fixatives, and gesso primers support work across multiple surfaces, while rulers, compasses, and protractors assist with technical drawing. Specialty paper for watercolour, marker, and pastel ensures optimal results in specific projects. Art students may also require cutting tools such as craft knives, scissors, and safety rulers for model making or collage work..

Different artistic techniques call for specialised materials, and matching your supplies to your process ensures smoother execution and better results. For example, students practicing ink work will benefit from dip pens, waterproof ink, and bleed-proof paper to master fluid linework and crosshatching. Those working in mixed media should have a combination of dry and wet tools, including soft pastels, acrylic paints, and collage adhesives. Sculpture or 3D design courses may require clay, modelling tools, wire, and armatures, while printmaking students often need carving blocks, linocut tools, and brayers. Choosing compatible surfaces is also crucial—wood panels, stretched canvas, and heavyweight mixed media paper each provide different responses to materials.
