Sakura of America
I had the pleasure of being a guest Instagrammer for Sakura last month. In case you missed it, here are my exclusive posts! Thank you to everyone who followed along or took the time to comment. It's much appreciated!
Be sure to follow both of us on Instagram for more inky goodness:
This week I'm the guest Instagrammer over on Sakura of America's Instagram page! It's such a treat considering they make my favorite art supplies and I've been using their Micron pens as long as I can remember. For the next four days I'll be sharing the ways I use my favorite Sakura products, glimpses of current projects, and the things that inspire my work.
Hope you'll follow along here!
I've been fortunate enough to collaborate with Sakura of America (the creators of my favorite pens) on creative projects over the last couple years. I am so excited to host a fun giveaway to celebrate the launch of their newly redesigned website and the release of another amazing tool of the trade, Pigma Professional Brush pens!
While I love experimenting with all their products, their rich, highly pigmented black pens and markers hold a special place in my heart and in my creative arsenal.
Sakura's new Pigma Professional Brush series offers the ultimate in versatility. Their durable brush nibs respond to instant changes in pressure or direction with a silky smooth, accurate and consistent ink flow. The deep black, archival quality Pigma® ink ensures the mark will last a lifetime. These pens are the best of both worlds for artists who typically create using brushes because they offer the same fluidity and ease, but in a portable and mess-free package.
As someone who is generally more comfortable with a pen than brush, it's really fun to be able to experiment with these flexible nibs, yet preserve the technique and accuracy that is so important to my signature style.
TWO Lucky Winners will receive:
3 pack of Pigma Professional Brush pens (fine, medium and bold nibs)
3 pack of Pigma Micron pens (sizes 01, 03 and 05)
3 blank Scout Book notebooks (1 large, 2 small)
A mystery 11x14" print my me!
