My Artwork on the New Prismacolor Set

The new set of 150 Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils has finally been released today! What's exciting about this is not only that 18 NEW colors are included in the set, but that MY ARTWORK is featured on the beautiful black box. I'm so glad I don't have to keep it a secret anymore!

Below are the images of the Prismacolor box and of my artwork "The Three Graces", known in Greek mythology as Charm, Beauty, and Creativity. The original was done on Stonehenge Paper using - what else? - Prismacolor Colored Pencils and the Icarus Drawing Board.

  7. How beautiful it looks. What a wonderful opportunity for the world to see your beautiful work. Big congrats!

  8. Wonderful news, Ester and a just reward for your wonderful artwork.
    I have tried several times to join the Prismacolor website, but it seems that they aren't interested in artists from Australia. For all the advertising I do about their products and to get 'snubbed', is quite degrading. However, they do make an excellent pencil!

  9. Wow! It looks beautiful - congratulations!

    (Remember me from Fullerton College and the Marriot? ) Beautiful work as usual, Esther. I have been following your work online. I love your invention. It's a marvelous idea!

  24. Ester is one of the most accomplished and hardworking artists I know, and has done more than anyone in recent years to advance colored pencil art with the invention of her Icarus Board. She well deserves this honor from Prismacolor.

    I am in love! ..with the transparency of the petals of these flowers and the gorgeous colors! I am only learning colored pencil painting and intently looking and wondering how you did it. What an honor from Prismacolor. A deserved honor...
