- Mediums: Mediums are substances added to paint to alter its consistency or drying time. Examples are slow-drying medium, which prolongs working time, and impasto medium, which adds texture.

- Brushes: Various brushes of different shapes and sizes are applied for other techniques. The most popular paintbrushes are round, liner, wash, angular, and fan.
- Palette: Palette for mixing and holding paint. These can be made of plastic, wood, or other materials.
- Palette knife: Mix colors on the palette and apply the paint to the canvas.
- Canvas or painting surface: Canvas, canvas board, paper, or other surfaces suitable for the chosen medium.
