So recently I decided that I really wanted to do an artist subscription box, both to inspire me to try new art mediums and tools and just for the sheer fun of getting a surprise in the mail each month! I received my first ArtSnacks box yesterday and here is what I got and a couple little ACEO artworks I made with the materials!
What was included this month:
A Uni-Posca Brush Tip Paint Marker
2 Marabu Graphix Aqua Watercolor Pens
A Tombow Fudenosuke Soft Tip Brush Pen
A Sakura SumoGrip Mechanical Pencil
A Cherry Lifesaver (I do love the candy!)
My favorites are the watercolor pens, the soft tip brush pen, and the SumoGrip pencil! The Uni-Posca marker is the most expensive item in the box, but I don’t find it works as well as I had hoped.
Here are a couple little ACEO art trading cards I made with the materials from the box:
Looks fun!

It is! The surprise is what is fun, and getting to try new supplies I might not regularly get for myself.

I know little about art, but that name seems deceptive. You only got one snack!

LOL, yeah, not sure why they chose that name. They always only include one piece of candy as far as edibles go. The rest is art supplies 🙂

$24 a month. I cut back in a few other little areas to afford it. I just enjoy the surprise and getting to experiment with materials I might never try otherwise.
