Our Story
OAT is TAO spelled backwards.
My name is Grace Tao, and the name OAT ART STUDIO® comes from my last name, Tao, written in reverse. To me, this small reversal reflects a creative way of thinking — seeing familiar things from a different angle and discovering new possibilities.
As a professional artist with over 10 years of studio practice, I created OAT ART STUDIO® as a Canadian-owned painting colour brand for artists who love rich colour, expressive texture, and dependable materials. Our collection focuses on watercolor, metallic watercolor, acrylic, and oil paints — the essential colours I use, test, and develop with real painting workflow in mind.
Every OAT ART STUDIO® product is created to support artists from beginner to professional levels, whether you are learning basic techniques, exploring your own style, or building finished artworks. My goal is to make professional-quality painting materials more accessible, inspiring, and enjoyable for every creative journey.
