xTool celebrated International Women’s Day 2026 by spotlighting the growing influence of female creators, who now represent 40% of the xTool user community. The “Her Voice, Made Visible” campaign culminated in a high-energy Maker Party in Los Angeles, bridging the gap between creative hobbyists and professional entrepreneurship through advanced technology and mentorship. We were incredibly pleased to be gifted our very own xTool machine to be used at Feminist Center for Creative work!
Artist Spotlight: Domonique Brown
-
Partnered with artist, illustrator and DomoINK founder, Domonique Brown. (Brown’s journey, previously featured in Fortune and CNBC, serves as a blueprint for how xTool empowers women to “water their own gardens” and build their own brand legacies.)
-
Demonstrated the power of the xTool F2 Ultra in scaling a side hustle into a sustainable artistic legacy. (Brown still has her full time job as Social Media Manager for Tomb Raider. DomoINK is her small business.)
-
“I was told art should be delicate. But creating with the xTool F2 Ultra showed me something different. With the right tools, creativity can be bold, precise, and unapologetic. Turning ideas into tangible pieces gives me confidence, control, and the ability to share my voice through what I make.” — Domonique Brown.
