ScrawlrBox #065

I absolutely love receiving my Scrawlbox, it's so exciting opening each one when it arrives...... :raised_hands:
The latest one had watercolour paints so I drew a sunflower :sunflower: in support for the Ukraine :u1F1FA::u1F1E6:

My daughter latest art work using February box and inspiration. She love the scrawl box. Fantastic items every month. She love doing art and this not only help to inspire her but helps her to get to know artist too

Loved this box. The sketchbook was good And the Tombow markers were easy to use. I tried out the prompt and the design on the front of the Zine. And loved doing both. I also like the black wing pencil it has a lovely smooth graphite mark and the rubber is excellent as I go through a lot of rubber and it can be replaced which is an excellent idea. Fabulous box really liked it.

This box was fantastic. I loved the bespoke black wing pencil and this has taken pride of place in my pencil case. I used the markers in some of my Inktober sketches and they worked perfectly.

My I start by saying OMG OMG OMG! BLACKWING PENCIL! :joy:
I LOVE LOVE LOVE blackwing pencils and know from experience how expensive they are (I once paid £10 for one pencil) so was amazed to get one in the box! They have a smoothness you cannot match anywhere and have the magic ability to make any design 10x better than it would be with a regular pencil :heart_eyes: (see photos of a piece I'm currently working on using only blackwings)
The fineliner was awesome and didn't smudge or bleed and the little sketchbook was great (I used it for a month of sketch challenges called "faebruary") the paper was smooth and definitely quality!
The tombow markers were amazing and as a bonus were all hues of my favourite colour (aqua/turquoise) I'm already a fan of zentangle and love using artist tiles for each tangle I make and these markers worked perfectly on the Cardstock of the tiles with no bleeding. They were also great for some art journal work and I was so impressed by these markers I am actively seeking the rest of the colours in the set, expensive maybe but thanks to scrawlrbox I now know they are worth it! Thanks again scrawlrbox!

I bought this box as I loved the look and colours represented in this . Although haven’t had a lot of time to experiment more I think on rainy days this will be something I will work with more as time goes by. Love the challenges and surprises that each month brings

I wasn’t too sure how I would get on with the Paisley pattern challenge, my hands shake quite a lot so I tend to start clear of intricate work so I made my patters big and not very intricate but l think you can still see the Paisley design just not very detailed.
I love all the boxes even when I am not sure about the supplies. This little box holds thousands of possibilities and the price is just amazing. Can’t wait for the next box!

Great quality markers and the paper was very smooth. The paper didn’t bleed through whatsoever which was fab.

I loved this box, the markers are so easy to use, I loved being able to doodle and create using just 3 colours. Everything worked so well together. A great box

I always love the boxes arrive each month, but this was one of my favourites! The sketchbook has gourgeous paper in it which i absolutely adore. I have never tried the tombow markers before, but I fell in love with them :purple_heart: the colours were fun and matched perfectly with eachother and with a watery scene.
The only thing i didn't like that much from this collection was the pencil.
But overall, this box is just perfect:purple_heart:

I love seeing traditional patterns and I instantly fell in love with the January 2021 ScrawlrBox. Although I am not the best at patterns like that I tried my best (I attached a photo below) the Alcohol markers are AMAZING and strokes beautiful. The high quality graphite pencil is so good I still use it now. The outline pen is super and great quality

Thank you so much ScrawlrBox for your good service, I'm glad I purchased these ScrawlrBoxs.

The markers are great! They have very nice brush nibs, don't smudge the liner and don't bleed through the paper, which means I can draw on both sides and half of the sketchbook won't go to waste. But I have a feeling this paper isn't ideal for markers. When I tried the same markers on a marker paper the colors looked better and it was easier to create smooth blends.
The pencil looks cool and smells nice too! I don't think it works better than a regular pencil, but it's great having a fancy limited edition pencil! :)

Loved this box, really inspirational and have begun drawing mandalas and making cards

I was already familiar with Tombow ABT markers, and they are good quality. I enjoyed the color selection for it's muted, coordinated tones. I was also already familiar with the Kuretake Millennium fineliner, Kretake is a favorite brand! The new items for me were the Scrawler branded "Blackwing" pencil with its unique eraser. Very useful shape, and nice smooth, dark line. But the real treat was the wonderful marker paper from Clairefontain! Not a speck of bleed-through from the alcohol markers! And the art prompt was fun! Attached is the paisley pattern I created with all the products.

Was really fun to just zone out and doodle pretty patterns! Really liked the martials.

I really enjoyed this box! The sketchbook was amazing and the markers didn’t bleed through the paper at all. I have a lot of fun with these supplies.

This was an amazing box, the usual combination of high quality products and inspiring artists and projects to have a go at! I love trying new materials, scrawlr helps me to push my practice and try new things.

A great box! I really enjoyed working with the supplies and the markers didn't bleed through the paper. I love the Scrawlrbox branded Blackwing pencil too.

It was inspiring to receive so much of the story of ScrawlrBox - Chris Lambert’s story, his inspirations, a beautiful example of his designs and art supplies to join in and create our own celebration of an important milestone.

The Jan ‘21 box was the right mix at the right time! I have always loved Paisley Patterns but felt I could never do that!

However, the tools, Chris’ story and tips provided me with every encouragement to have a go myself. I was able to produce some delicate work with the beautiful Blackwing X ScrawlrBox Special Edition graphite pencil and the Kuretake Millennium 03 fineliner. I had to slow down and use a lighter touch than is natural to me, but it’s all part of the fun of learning to be an artist. The Tombow ABT Pro Markers provided the delicate colours and variety of line-width to bring my design a level of contrast and interest. I’m still learning so the piece I like best looks incomplete but it reflects my growing level of confidence in designing patterns - not least that I’m sharing it with the ScrawlrBox community.

Overall, this is a favourite ScrawlrBox. Well done to Chris and all the ScrawlrBox box team:u1F970:

Awesome box. Loved how well the pens blended and the different tips helped achieve both distinct line work and feathered edging depending on the desire effect. Great colour palette too!

Perhaps my favourite box so far, as soon as I saw the colours I was hooked! I enjoy fine liner work so if was great to try my hand at a new technique I haven’t tried before (paisley patterns). Very methodical and almost meditative process. I had lots of fun applying the techniques to different animals and shapes.
