Lefranc & Conté à Paris invites you this year to unleash your creativity for Christmas, with the Lefranc Bourgeois x Conté à Paris Artistic Advent Calendar!
Count down each day discovering either a drawing or painting materials behind each door from two iconic fine art brands: Lefranc Bourgeois, creating colours since 1720 and supporting generations of artists, and Conté à Paris, founded in 1795 by Nicolas-Jacques Conté, inventor of the modern pencil.
From pencils to gouache to acrylic paint to accessories & more, every day brings a new opportunity to experiment with a technique, a gesture or a medium and enrich your artistic practice. And the experience doesn’t stop when you open each door!
Scan the QR code inside the calendar to discover more about each product, with tips on how to use it, artistic techniques, and fascinating stories about iconic products and the history of art. From the first sketch to the final touch of colour, let yourself be surprised, try new techniques and explore your creativity day after day. 24 days. 24 discoveries. Endless possibilities to create and dare to paint!
