All this month, we’re featuring our flagship brand: the Palomino. As our highest quality pencil, it gives you the smoothest, darkest line on a page. We are so confident in its quality, we decided to co-brand our Blackwing pencil with the Palomino name.

To celebrate the Palomino experience, we want to see your best artwork with a Palomino or a Palomino Blackwing! Please submit your drawings, sketches, doodles or other artwork that you created with any of our Palomino branded pencils or colored pencils! Deadline is Friday, Feb. 25, and the most creative entry wins! (We have a panel of judges standing by.) The winner will be announced on this blog by Monday, Feb 28!

We accept good quality, scanned or photographed artwork in JPEG, PNG or PDF format. Please include your name, email, and address along with your submission. Simply email it to our Contest Entry box at contests@pencils.com, or post it to our Facebook fan page!

At the end of February, we’ll choose a winner that will receive one of our beautiful, limited edition Palomino Blackwing Gift Box, containing two dozen Palomino Blackwings and a Palomino KUM long-point sharpener. The second place winner will recieve a Deluxe Artist Pencil Kit, and the third-place winner will get a dozen Palomino Blackwings.

Good luck, and we can’t wait to see your artwork!
