Blackwing Volume 710: A tribute to Jerry Garcia, with a section of his painting "Curves & Lines" printed on each pencil. With a soft graphite core, ideal for drawing and music composition. Perfect for those who value artistic and musical expression.
The Blackwing Volume 710 is a tribute to Jerry Garcia, known primarily as the lead guitarist and vocalist of the Grateful Dead, but also an influential visual artist. This pencil celebrates the fusion of Garcia's visual and musical expression, reflected in a section of his painting "Curves & Lines" printed on each pencil.
Jerry Garcia not only made his mark in music, but his home at 710 Ashbury Street was a focal point for the enlightenment and expression that characterised San Francisco in the 1960s. This environment also nurtured Jerry's deep exploration of painting and the visual arts. His sketches and paintings, like his music, seem to wander across the canvas, taking unexpected turns and changing shape, demonstrating that improvisation is not exclusive to the stage and that our ideas should not be limited by what is expected of us.
The Blackwing 710 features a smooth graphite core, ideal for drawing and musical composition, allowing users to capture their creativity in a fluid and expressive way. Each pencil is not only a functional tool, but also a work of art in its own right, with the "Curves & Lines" print inspiring you to explore new ideas without restraint.
This pencil is perfect for artists, musicians and anyone who appreciates the connection between music and the visual arts. With the Blackwing Volume 710, we pay tribute to Jerry Garcia's ability to combine these two forms of expression in a celebration of creativity and artistic freedom.
