Description
The Sendak Artist Roll was designed with the nomadic artist in mind. This treasure carries your current arsenal of tools with you from the studio to coffee shop en plein air.
In the Kent family, the Sendak has become an interactive centerpiece. Placed in the center of a table or picnic blanket, a group of drawers and dreamers gathers ’round. A session begins and ends with the Sendak, filled with a bouquet of colors, brushes and pens. As its namesake Maurice Sendak wrote, “Let the wild rumpus start!” And get messy – because clean-up is easy!

Review: Peg & Awl Sendak Artist's Roll
The Peg & Awl Sendak Artist's Roll has become an essential part of my daily creative practice. As an artist who values both form and function, this beautifully crafted roll delivers on all fronts. Its waxed canvas construction is not only durable but also a delight to handle. The tactile experience it offers—sturdy yet soft, with just the right amount of rugged charm—is something I look forward to every time I use it.
My Sendak Roll is my trusted companion, housing my favorite tools: five fountain pens, a selection of pencils, several travel watercolor brushes, and two small Moleskine sketchbooks. Despite its compact design, it manages to hold everything I need while keeping them neatly organized. The large, sturdy strap ensures everything stays secure, even when I’m on the go.
What sets this product apart is the attention to detail in its craftsmanship. Peg & Awl’s dedication to quality shines through in every stitch and seam. There may be other artist rolls on the market, some even at a lower price point, but the story and ethos of Peg & Awl elevate this product to something truly special. Naming the roll after Maurice Sendak, an iconic figure in the creative world, adds a layer of thoughtfulness and homage that resonates deeply with me.
For anyone who values functional beauty, the Sendak Artist's Roll is more than just a tool—it’s a work of art in itself. It embodies a timelessness that makes it feel like a treasured heirloom, not…

I’m so glad I got this roll. As well as being incredibly functional, it’s a masterpiece of craftsmanship. I’ve got it loaded up with an assortment of colored pencils, a tin of neocolor crayons, gel crayons, waterbrushes, a watercolor palette and my sketchbook. Love it!
