My #penstoretalents2026 piece! Since I am much more used to creating digital art, this was quite the challenge but I had so much fun!
Only 8 pens, picked by PenStore and I had to use them all. Really looking forward to doing this challenge again 2027!

Two photos, one of a calligraphy pencil under an open calendar lid and the other of the pencil and written text that says “Happy Holidays”.
Whoops! Almost forgot! Day 24 of the #penstore calendar!
Two photos, one of a blue gelly roll pencil under an open calendar lid and the other of the pencil and a drawing of an “octopus” with 5 legs.
Day 23 of the #penstore calendar! I couldn’t think of anything Christmas-y to draw. XD
Two photos, one of a brown colored pen under an open calendar lid and the other of the pen and a drawing of a gingerbread man.
Day 22 of the #penstore calendar. Finally got a colored pen. XD …a brown one so scribbled a gingerbread man. XD

Day 20 of the #penstore calendar. I liked this paint more than the silver one.
Two photos, a black sharpie fine point under an open calendar lid and the other of the sharpie with a chibi scribbled on white paper.
Day 19 of the #Penstore calendar. This Sharpie even though it’s fine point it’s pretty…big. The paper bled a lot too which didn’t help. A bit surprised since it hasn’t bled for any other pencil. Oh well.
Two photos, a tiny square grid notebook with a yellow cover under an open calendar lid and the other of the notebook with a chibi face scribbled on the first page.
Day 18 of the #penstore calendar. Cute tiny little notebook. XD did a super fast sketchy chibi since I should’ve gone to bed hours ago but have been working on a school project.
Two photos, a purple pen under an open calendar lid and the other of the pen and flowers drawn with the blue ink of the pen.
Day 17 of the #penstore calendar. A purple pen. Slightly disappointed that the ink wasn’t purple. XD;;
Two photos, a pencil with purple graphite under an open calendar lid and the other of the pencil and a list of names of characters with their occupation and pronouns.
Day 16 of the #penstore calendar. I had planned to draw something, but while I was pondering what to draw I was also pondering the characters and their dramas in my current story so I wrote down some of the reoccurring cast instead and am still pondering the others. XD …I like the pencil.
Two photos, one of a sample baggie of red acrylic paint under an open calendar lid and the other of the sample baggie and a drawing of a mushroom.
Day 15 of the #penstore calendar. Apparently I forgot to ad in the opening of the lid photo yesterday. XD oh well.
Two photos, one of a sharpie gel pen under an open calendar lid and the other of the pen and a drawing of a red bow.
Day 14 of the #penstore calendar. I forgot to post again. XD;;
Two photos, one of a stablio pen under an open calendar lid and the other of the pen and a drawing of a chibi character in black.
Day 13 of the #penstore calendar. Time really flies fast. A quick chibi sketchy of the character that sneaked in yesterday. Their name is currently Alric.
Two photos, one of a gold crayon under an open calendar lid and the other of the gold crayon being held up by a finger and the drawing of stars and hearts on a black paper laying on top of a graphic tablet with a digital drawing of a super pale person with black hair and glowing yellow eyes.
Day 12 of the #penstore calendar. Almost forgot about it since I was busy drawing digitally XD;;
Two photos, one of a paint block under an open calendar lid and the other of the paint block and the painting of stars on a black paper.
Day 11 of the #penstore calendar. It’s opal coppar from Zig Kuretake, it’s a very sparkly color that I couldn’t really capture in a photo. XD …I like it.
Two photos, one of a paint tube under an open calendar lid and the other of the paint tube and the painting of an eye and an eyebrow with silver paint.
Day 10 of the #penstore calendar. Silver paint! I like the idea but I didn’t like the paint as much. Used the brush from yesterday.
Two photos, one of a Raphael brush under an open calendar lid and the other of the brush and the painting of a person with a long bowl cut hiding their eyes.
Day 9 of the #penstore calendar…today I got a brush. I like it a lot. :3
Two photos, one of a red ecoline brush marker under an open calendar lid and the other of the marker and the drawing of a stylized rose with black liner and black leaves.
Day 8 of the #penstore calendar. Busy working on the school project that I have to submit on Wednesday but managed to scribble a bit.
Two photos, one of a fancy box of a blue pastel crayon under an open calendar lid and the other of the open box and the crayon out and a quick sketch of an anime character with a long bowl cut.
Day 7 …almost forgot to do the #penstore calendar today because I was busy with schoolwork. XD
Two photos, a blue tube of acrylic paint under a lid of a calendar. The second is a painted drawing of blue grapes.
Day 6 of the #penstore calendar. Another acryl paint. This time from the same company as the airdry clay. XD
Two photos, first is a photo of a packet of pink air-dry clay under an advent calendar lid, second is a clay rose on a white table next to the empty clay packet.
Day 5 of the #penstore advent calendar. I was surprised by this day. Quickly threw together a rose. I have played with clay before but not very often. XD
Day four of the #penstore advent calendar... Today I got a 20% off coupon and a Leuchtturm1917 pen loop. So no image today. XD
Two photos, on the first one is a blue liner pen under the lid of an advent calendar. The second photo has 3 flowers drawn with the blue liner and the pen laying next to them.
Day 3 of the #penstore advent calendar. I like this pen. :3
Two photos the top one is an open lid of an advent calendar with a pink sharpie pen under it. The other photo is of the same pen and a pink chair with black line art.
Second day of the #penstore calendar. :3 I will get some more sharpies in the future. XD …I hurried this chair since I have to go to bed early for Genshin Impact shenanigans tomorrow.
Two photos the top one is an open lid of an advent calendar with a tube of paint under it. The other photo is of the same tube and a painted red apple with black line art and a with dot to make the apple look glossy.
First day of the #penstore :3 got sennelier acrylic paint. I think it’s cadmium red. They don’t seem to have this size on the site so I’m presuming that this tube cost around $1.
An advent calendar that is metallic purplish pink with a splash of yellow that says “Christmas of creativity”
Woop! Will be opening up an art tool advent calendar from #penstore this year too! Hoping to have more time this year to actually do more than just an eye each day but we’ll see. I’m studying right now so won’t know until then how much time I will have. Am also working on a comic right now. :3

I feel mighty dumb. Here I’ve been lamenting that there weren’t any local pen stores in the area and there’s actually one practically in my backyard.
Someone tell me how I didn’t know Fountain Pen Revolution was in my neighborhood? I mean it’s 2 miles from my house 😳. #fountainpen #penstore
Which is to say, who among you sells refills???? #penstore #stationary #stationarystore #fountainpens #fountainpen
A sage green A4 Leuchtturm1917 sketchbook, a Canson multipurpose paperpad, a set of penstore watercolor brushes, 2 mechanical pencils and a 48 piece Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi watercolor set laying on a grey bedcover.
Woop! The #penstore advent calendar also had a 20% coupon that I took advantage off and bought Xmas gifts for me and my sibling. XD; This is my gift to myself. It arrived today. :) (ordered on the 23rd) hoho, I’m gonna paint the characters from my comics when the programming classes are finished. :)
