More about this edition

A whole winter world, painted by Volane – and 32 colors, 15 of which you won’t find anywhere else.

  • 24 drawers · 32 full-size colors – Chalk Paint, Acrylic Paint and Aquarylic Color in 30, 60 and 120 ml
  • 15 special mixes, mixed exclusively for this calendar – not available in any shop
  • Plus a few extras that we won’t reveal here
  • 1 month of Aquarylic Academy included for free

Note: The 10 % newsletter discount cannot be applied to the Advent calendars.

Last year, Volane designed the first Aquarylic advent calendar. This year she goes further: she designed the calendar inside and out – one continuous winter world that stretches across all 24 drawers. And she didn’t just choose the colors: 15 of the 32 shades were mixed exclusively for this calendar.

And a detail we love: every opened drawer is turned around and slid back in – its back shows the same picture, just without the number. That way you can see at a glance which doors have already been opened, and day by day the winter world becomes complete.

About Volane

“I paint and I talk. To some it says nothing, to others it speaks volumes.”

Both calendars together

Volane’s palette is a winter palette: off-white, snow shadows, ice and dusk – plus shimmer and effect colors and two large 120 ml glazes for sky and snow. The Coloryourlife Edition is the basic palette to go with it. We checked both shade lists against each other before production so that no shade repeats: open both, and on December 24 you’ll have 56 different colors in front of you – one for you, one to give away. The greatest joy is the one you share.

What exactly is inside – every shade – is listed further down behind the spoiler. But only if you want to know.

Product details

32 colors in full size

This calendar contains only real product sizes – no sample packs. Everything is handmade in our manufactory in Vorarlberg from regional raw materials and is vegan.

What people say about Aquarylic

Reviews from across our entire range

Two calendars — one December full of color

Last year there was one. This year there are two.

The Aquarylic Advent Calendar 2026 comes in two independent editions. Each was created with an artist, each bears her signature — in the design on the outside, in the color selection on the inside. They are not variants of each other. They are two different Decembers.

What they share: full-size containers instead of sample packs. Paints from our workshop in Vorarlberg, vegan and highly pigmented. And, in the Volane Edition, doors hiding shades that won't exist anywhere after December 24.

Spoiler alert

On-screen rendering — the shades are an approximation. Which of them are the special mixes and which shade sits behind which door remains a secret. The last shade is still under wraps.

Together they make up a complete palette

The two calendars are not two sizes of the same product. They are built to complement each other.

Volane's palette is a winter palette — broken whites, snow shadows, ice and dusk, plus shimmer and effect colors and two large 120 ml glazes for sky and snow. Miriam's palette is a true base palette — the shades you can mix everything else from.

We checked both shade lists against each other before production so that no shade repeats. Open both and you'll have 56 different colors in front of you on December 24 — none of them twice.

And the best part of Advent isn't the door anyway. It's the face of someone opening one. Two calendars mean: one for you, one to give away — or two people looking forward to the same thing every morning for 24 days. The best joy is the kind you share.

Included paint media

Aquarylic Color

Aquarylic Color

Our own paint medium combines the luminosity of oil with the transparency and flow of watercolor. The smooth, fluid consistency allows seamless transitions, brilliant glazes, and powerful effects.

More about Aquarylic Color
Acrylic Paint

Acrylic Paint

Intensely pigmented, creamy, and versatile: our artist-quality acrylic paints are just as suited to bold color application as to fine details — with rich luminosity and a satin-matte finish.

More about acrylic paint
Chalk Paint

Chalk Paint

Matte, highly opaque, and full of character: chalk paints create a velvety surface with powdery, richly textured depth. Chalk paint is only included in the Volane Edition.

About the artist

Volane is the artist alias of Maris Rauch. Her works invite you to look more closely: what seems banal at first glance turns into a big story in her hands – with humor, directness and strong contrasts. More than 700,000 people follow her along the way.

For this calendar she painted an entire winter world – outside and inside – and mixed the colors for it herself. Even the order of the drawers follows the way her painting is built up. In what order? That remains her secret.

Aquarylic and Volane share the same ambition: color is not just a material but expression, statement and experience.

Frequently asked questions about the Advent calendar

What is the difference between the two editions?

Both have 24 doors and contain only full-size containers. The Volane Edition is a designed winter world — created by Volane inside and out, with 32 colors, 15 of them special mixes, and a few extras we only reveal in the spoiler further up. The Coloryourlife Edition is built for daily painting: 24 colors as a true base palette, plus Miriam's video course, which uses exactly these colors. Can't decide? The two complement each other — no shade repeats.

When will the calendar ship?

Shipping starts in November, so you'll have the calendar at home in time for December 1.

When will I be charged?

Payment is taken when you place your order — with Klarna, according to their terms. Your calendar ships in November, in time for December 1.

Can I give the calendar as a gift?

Yes, that's what it's made for. It arrives at your place in November — so you have plenty of time to pass it on or send it as a gift yourself.

What is the Aquarylic Academy, and what does it cost me?

Nothing. Both calendars include a card with a code for one month of free access to the Aquarylic Academy — live calls, compact courses, community, and discounts on courses and products. The month is a bonus; it is not factored into the price.

Is Miriam's video course included in the price? (Coloryourlife Edition)

Yes, in the Coloryourlife Edition. Access comes in two parts inside the calendar — when, stays a surprise. You'll paint with exactly the colors you've opened by then.

Where do you ship?

We ship to almost all EU countries as well as Norway and the United Kingdom. Shipping to Austria and Germany is free from a 49 € order value — the calendar is always above that. All details are on the shipping page.

Can I return the calendar?

Yes, the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal applies. The Advent calendar is excluded from our voluntary 60-day return policy.

Are the paints vegan?

Yes. All Aquarylic products are vegan, highly pigmented, and made in our workshop in Vorarlberg.
