Pencil Magazine Issue Two PRESALE

* Issue Two will ship in early November, 2025 *

Here at Pencil Magazine, we focus on all the kinds of marks that can be made in graphite. But atop many pencils sits another essential technology — the eraser. If pencils represent the infinite possibilities of creation, then erasers represent the option to change course. Revisions are as much a part of the *work* of art as mark-making. In this issue, 46 (!) artists and writers from around the globe tackle erasers/erasing/erasure in drawings, essays, comics, and other text-image experiments.

The magazine is 6" x 9" and features 152 (!) pages of original artwork and writing.

The Issue Two cover art is by Monica Larson.

The contributors are: Kristin Albrecht, Diana Baltag, Philip Brou, Joey Bruce, Raffaele Capasso, John Caserta, Saranya Chandrasekaran, Yu-Ching Chiu, Ariel Courage, Bogna Czurczak, Putri Early, Edoardo De Falchi, Wendy Drexler, Grace Dvorak, Charlotte Fleming, Nabiha Ghani, Din ne di, Alison Griffin, Ron Hotz, Nouran Husain, Rebecca Jansson, Herin Kim, Joanne Lam, Monica Larson, Arel Lisette, Brian Lutz, Olivia Mae, Fiona McCrae, Rick Moody, Mallory Murphy, Melissa Meyer, Neil Neill, Viktoriia Pek, Pat Peralta, Amy Jean Porter, Maia Pujara, Jabeen Qadri, Connie Saems, Sarah Shaw, Amanda Stern, Stephanie Tartick, Tyti, Sarah Thigpen, Weef, Ro Williams, Amelia Wiygul
