Something old…
What if you could give your past digital art – trapped in old Procreate stacks and lost among other untitled files – new life?
Something new.
That this new life could be used with purpose: carried to faraway places, doodled inside of, placed upon desks, packed with reminders, stuck onto surfaces...always creating memories.
Something beautiful, straight from you.
And you could experience that moment when your artwork is freed from its pixel prison and made into something tangible, something treasured, something that’s uniquely you.
Imagine literally holding your ideas in your hands
Envision…
Turning those past watercolor experiments into journals, those flat florals into stickers, and those patterns… let them tease the borders of notepads and wrap themselves around canvas totes.
So now the question: what will your art make?

Brush Set 1: Artist Essentials
The Artist Essentials brush set was born from the idea of having access to several materials that could be scattered on an artist’s desk: inky drawing pens, pencils, tubes of gouache, oil and acrylic paint…a pan set of watercolors, a set of pastels… all ready for any style you’d like to apply to stationery. Consider this the miscellaneous drawer of premium art supplies, just waiting to be paired with your imagination.
Brush Set 2: 32 Composition Template Stamps
Remove the fear of a blank canvas with this 3 category set of composition template stamps! Provided for portrait, landscape and square canvases, simply stamp in to create a base for your design. Add artwork to scribbled areas and add text (shown for hierarchy with size!) where you see rectangles.

Holding shapes are useful for headlines, badges or creating focus for your reader. These stamps are included as outlined shapes, so they can be used as outlines, but also as filled shapes (just drop in the same color to fill).
