Looking to get/make something for my dad, who is a painter and a sculptor. Ideas?
not a painting or sculpture

I'm not good at sculpting anyway, and my painting skills are nonexistent (something I've been wanting to learn, though) so that is more or less out of the question.
Something related to art would be good, though.
>>2292323
Maybe an inspirational art book. What sort of stuff does he paint/sculpt? Try to go for something sort of in that direction.
>>2292347
Here's one of his sculptures, to give you an idea. He's done a lot of abstract stuff.
>>2292323
books, tools or materials.
>not giving hom a giant piece of rock
>>2292353
He does enjoy giant rocks.
A book on art history or art theory or that sort of thing sounds like a good way to go.

Had a ex buy me a bunch of student grade shit paints that I couldn't use. You can't tell what they can use

If he was interested in a certain book he'd probably own it. Materials are something he'll actually use and run out of.
