Who Is The Pen Guy

Costas works as a graphic web designer, he owns his own company Envisionary Design and is married with three beautiful girls. Costas schuler came up with the idea of gluing pens to his car a few years ago and hasn’t stopped since, while enjoying his new hobby he discovered that millions of pens are thrown away every year and so has taken it upon himself to discover a solution to this problem.

The Mercedes Benz Pens

The pen car started off as 1981 300SD Mercedes Benz and has since been converted to a mobile art car. Costas has covered the car in over 10,000 pens and he is constantly gluing new ones onto the vehicle. Most of the pens have been donated from schools, business, thrift shops and by mail from around the country and even from other parts of the world.

It’s not just the exterior which has been given an art attack, the interior has also been plastered in a variety of pens.

Watch the video below to see the transformation of an old Merc to the colourful Mercedes pens art car.

The Pen Drive Project

The Pen guy has also started a project to collect a million pens, he wishes to hoard such an amount so that he can make pen murals, pen sculptures and replace the missing pens from the Mercedes Pens.
