Winner of the Creative Impulse Award for “Artist Product of the Year” at Creativeworld Frankfurt
With da Vinci GO, da Vinci introduces an innovative travel brush system that redefines artistic mobility. This flexible travel brush concept was specifically developed for urban sketching, travel watercolors, and creative work on the go. It combines traditional brush craftsmanship with modern, functional product design.
On February 6, 2026, the system received the Creative Impulse Award for “Artist Product of the Year 2026” at the Creativeworld trade fair in Frankfurt. The Creative Impulse Award is among the most prestigious distinctions for innovative products in the hobby and artists’ supplies sector. Each year, Creativeworld together with the trade magazine Cutes & Friends honors the most creative new products in the industry.
“We are absolutely delighted to receive this award. It motivates and inspires us to continue developing innovative products and staying close to current trends in order to meet the evolving needs of artists in a targeted way,” says Hermann Meyer, CEO of da Vinci.
The foundation of da Vinci GO is an intelligent plug-in system based on the proven brush heads from the da Vinci SPIN, MAESTRO, CASANEO, and COLINEO lines. Artists can therefore work with the familiar da Vinci quality — now in a completely new, mobile format that can be individually adapted to different working situations.
At the heart of the system is a convenient click connection between the brush head and handle. The plug-in design allows the brush head to be safely stored inside the handle for transport and instantly converted into painting mode when needed. An integrated air hole at the end of the handle ensures optimal ventilation and reliably prevents moisture buildup.
The robust plug-in principle guarantees a firm and secure fit of the brush head — both while painting and during transport. Even with frequent use, the modular travel brush system impresses with its durability and shows none of the typical wear associated with conventional travel brushes.
Whether traveling, sketching in urban environments, or working in the studio: da Vinci GO stands for creative freedom, uncompromising performance, and maximum mobility. As an intelligent system, each line offers eight different models, providing an exceptionally versatile selection for professional and inspiring work — wherever creativity happens. da Vinci GO will be available in stores from May.
