The Gift Guides
The best gift for an art teacher is something they will use every school day. Our totes carry famous paintings, zip shut, hold a 16 inch laptop and sketchbooks, and come with a story they can tell in class.
Pick the painting, we'll tell you the story.
No. 1
for the teacher who loves a good underdog story
A critic used this title to mock Monet and his friends in 1874, and the word Impressionism stuck. It is a ready-made lesson about being laughed at and winning anyway.
Claude MonetImpression, Sunrise, 1872
Musée Marmottan Monet, Paris
No. 2
for the teacher whose students all know this one
Van Gogh based it on the view from his window at the asylum in Saint-Rémy, adding the village from memory. Every class recognizes it, and every class has questions.
Vincent van GoghThe Starry Night, 1889
Museum of Modern Art, New York
No. 3
for the art history teacher
The Renaissance painting students can spot from across the room, and a perfect way into myth, composition and the Uffizi.
Sandro BotticelliThe Birth of Venus, about 1485
Uffizi Gallery, Florence
No. 4
for the textiles and design teacher
Morris designed this pattern in 1883 after watching thrushes steal strawberries in his garden. Pattern, nature and a small story in one bag.
William MorrisStrawberry Thief, designed 1883
Printed cotton textile, England
No. 5
for the teacher who runs a busy room
Degas painted ballet dancers in hundreds of works, and this class looks a lot like any classroom just before the bell.
Edgar DegasThe Dance Class, about 1874
Musée d'Orsay, Paris
No. 6
for the teacher going on maternity leave
Van Gogh painted it in 1890 as a present for his newborn nephew, so it has been a gift from the very start.
Vincent van GoghAlmond Blossom, 1890
Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam
Add the Tote Base. It keeps the bottom flat so the bag stands up on its own, even full of books. See the Tote Base.
Something they will use every school day, with art they can talk about. A sturdy tote that holds a laptop, sketchbooks and marking is more useful than another mug, and a famous painting gives them a story to tell in class.
Yes. It is personal without being too personal, and it gets used long after the school year ends. Our totes zip shut, have pockets inside and fit a 16 inch laptop.
Yes. A tote with a small add-on like a notebook or washi tape works well as a group gift. If you can't agree on a painting, a gift card lets the teacher choose.
