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.
For more information on the new set, please visit the Prismacolor Blog.

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!

(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!

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.
