Our Story
Founded by Artists, for Artists
Artist Easel Shop started in 2018 when two art school graduates realized something frustrating: finding quality studio supplies shouldn't be this hard. Between overpriced boutiques and unreliable online stores, artists were settling for tools that didn't match their ambition.
We set out to change that. Every product in our catalog has been tested in our own studio. We work directly with manufacturers in Italy, Germany, and the UK to source materials that meet professional standards without the gallery-district markup.
Today, we supply over 10,000 studios and classrooms across the country. From the solo artist setting up their first home studio to university art departments outfitting 200 students, we believe the right tools unlock creative potential.

What We Stand For
Quality First
We test every product in our own studio before it reaches yours. If it doesn't meet our standards, we don't sell it.
Artist-Owned
We're artists who understand what you need because we need it too. Our recommendations come from experience, not a sales playbook.
Sustainable Sourcing
We partner with manufacturers who share our commitment to responsible forestry, non-toxic materials, and ethical labor practices.
