I needed a break from another project I have been working on last night. I keep noticing some of my previous eraser stamps fitting the daily prompts for #PinkEraserArtober2026. Yesterday’s prompt, “spell,” matched one on my to-do list. So, I thought it would be fun to give it a go.

The ink jar is a variant of the ink jar I did styled after the Witch Hat Atelier anime recently. The circle in the upper left is for the “forbidden glow” spell Coco tries when she is first discovering magic.

I did most of the carving with a narrow v gouge, with a little bit of craft knife work around the star shape in the glyph.

Before printing, I painted the paper with UV-reactive ink. So, it glows under UV light.

A lino-cut-style stamp carved from a pink eraser depicts a pot of ink, a pen or brush, and a circular spell glyph sits face-up on a print made from the stamp. The print is signed with an A and is sitting on a background of dark green crepe paper (chirimen).
