The Great Indian Art Fair was a tribute to India’s diverse culture and artistic talent and Pentonic recognized the growing community of artists sharing their sketches, doodles, and drawings online, and created a digital platform for these creators to shine. The campaign blended India’s rich heritage of hand-drawn art with digital accessibility through a meticulously curated digital art gallery.
Participants submitted their artwork via the microsite thepenofindiaart.com, which featured thousands of creative interpretations of Indian themes crafted with Pentonic pens. In addition to providing artists a stage to showcase their talents, ‘TGIAF’ rewarded creativity with prizes for the top three winners and certificates of achievement for all participants, bridging the tangible and digital realms.
