While painters can discuss techniques, and sometimes do, that is not usually their main focus. So they can hold long conversations without mentioning supplies or techniques. But it also it depends on the medium, watercolorists are more like to discuss techniques more often than oil painters. Although, on the other hand, painters, on the whole, are often not the best at verbalizing either. So conversations may not actually be that long.
Generalizing is sort of stupid anyway. Because so many will not fall within its parameters. About the only consistent thing I have found that one can say about painters is they do not like staying between the lines.
