About

We're a small team of artists who got tired of wading through endless options at big-box stores. So we built the art supply shop we always wanted - carefully curated, obsessively tested, and genuinely helpful.

Gamboge & Gesso started in 2019 in a converted garage studio. Today, we ship to artists around the world, but our mission remains the same: source the best materials, share what we know, and help you make your best work.

What Makes Us Different

01

Curated Selection

We carry fewer products than the big stores - on purpose. Every item is tested by our team before it makes it to the shop.

02

Artist-Led

Our team includes working painters, illustrators, and calligraphers. We answer questions from experience, not a script.

03

Honest Reviews

We publish reviews (even negative ones) and create comparison guides. No paid placements, ever.

04

Sustainable Practices

Eco-friendly packaging, carbon-neutral shipping, and partnerships with brands committed to sustainability.
