Last month, Pentel Singapore held our very first art studio pop up across 4-days at the cosy, second floor space of Cheeselads. In case you missed it, here's an event recap! 

For this event, we really wanted to showcase the variety of Pentel products available as Pentel does not only carry stationery but also a wide variety of art tools.

We also wanted to emphasize on Pentel's philosophy: At Pentel, we believe that true joy lies in the art of self-expression. Regardless of age or background, we believe that everyone has a story to tell. Whether it's through the strokes of a paintbrush or the flow of ink from a pen, we celebrate the beauty of sharing heartfelt thoughts and creativity. Our philosophy is rooted in the power of handwritten and handmade creations to foster genuine connections and lasting impressions. Pentel strives to support this philosophy through the innovation of high-quality stationery and art materials, empowering our users to tell their own unique story.

With these two objectives in mind, it translated into a series of activities that guests could participate in at our Pentel Art Studio! 


 Working with creatives like Mandy and Kathleen for this activity has certainly been inspiring, as it helped us explore the different ways to use our Brush Sign Pen Twin

Not only can you use it directly on paper, but because it has a water-based ink, you can also use the ink to blend like a watercolour. 

Participants got to try their hands at different watercolour blending techniques using our Brush Sign Pen Twin and Aquash Water Brush, to create their own fashion sketch art and floral art pieces ✨

This is the first time we introduced the silkscreen printing activity using our Fabric Fun Paint colours, and safe to say that everyone enjoyed printing their own mini tote bags! 

Participants were encouraged to mix the colours to create fun gradient effects. It's great to see that you can still achieve many variations despite a limited set of designs!

A tip for the Fabric Fun Paint colours before using them yourself, try mixing it with water for the consistency that you desire. We recommend equal parts of paint and water if you're trying it for the first time! ☺️

 



As our philosophy encompasses building genuine connections, we encouraged guests to write a letter to their future selves! Connecting with oneself is equally as important, and also achievable through the creative process of art or writing. 

Through this activity, participants could indulge in self-reflection & self-expression, using a range of tools such as our Oil Pastels, Brush Sign Pens and of course the new Energel Kawaii Gel Roller Pens!

Lastly, we had to include our MATTEHOP Receipt Camera Photobooth so that guests could have something personal to take home as a memorabilia! ❤️

The MATTEHOP Gel Roller Pens works perfectly on not just the usual paper surface, but also receipt paper and photopaper. Try it for yourself 🥰
