My friend Mel asked this one on my blog, and I think it is a great question to start with!
I guess it would depend on what mediums your friend worked with, but if they do any kind of painting, an artist can never have too many paintbrushes, especially ones for detailed work. Don't get the cheapest paintbrushes at the store, and stay far away from the most expensive ones, lol... I would say $3-5 per brush would be your best bet - not too cheap and not too pricey.
Resource books are always great too... or gift cards to online art supply stores for sure!
What do you guys think?
