This what my July 2015 Premium SketchBox looks like! There is a different illustration on the box each month.

Every month SketchBox features a different artist and the tools they used to create their piece of art. This month's featured artist is Adele Flamond from New Milford, Connecticut. She used the black and white pencils (from the basic box) to create this stunning photo-realistic piece. You can view more of her art on her Instagram: @uhdele.

If you'd like YOUR art featured in a SketchBox tag your art with #sketchbox and contact them at info@getsketchbox.com to get the process started. 

12 Piece set of Koh-I-Noor's Gioconda Soft Pastel Pencils | Artist's Chamois

The pencils offer the smooth finish of conventional pastels without the mess. They are highly pigmented, with a buttery smooth feel, and have excellent blending and toning characteristics on dark or light surfaces. All colors are lightfast and fade resistant. The Gioconda Pencils also feature California cedar wood casing for crisp and accurate sharpening with minimal waste. They are some of the softest and smoothest pastel pencils available.

The artist's chamois gives you effortless blending abilities with the pastel colors. It's easy to wash - just throw it in the washer/dryer or wash & dry by hand.
