While I am neither an artist or a designer, one look
around my office and you’ll see an oversized fishbowl chockfull of Sharpie®
markers of all shapes, sizes and colors. Forget the erasable whiteboard; one of
my prized possessions is an easel whiteboard with the oversized flipchart
attached and just for fun the tabletop, oversized sticky note flip charts.
I find these to be the indispensable tools of
creativity and planning, and I have been known to drive my wife crazy as I
manically scrawl ideas on the flip chart I have strategically tacked to her
office wall. I admit to more than a few overzealous arrows and under-linings
that have been the root of paint touch ups.
So I approached Timothy Goodman’s Sharpie Art Workshop – Techniques and Ideas for Transforming Your World
from the perspective of an undeniable fan of the Sharpie®. Goodman not only
lays out the lowdown on everything Sharpie®, he also serves up some bold
inspiration for the artist and the non-artist alike.
There is a level of fascination that I have for those
artists and doodlers alike who can raise things to a different level when it
comes to Sharpie® art. While Sharpie® Art
Workshop may not transform you into a modern day Picasso, it will offer
creative inspiration to kick things up a notch on the creative front and
realize that there really are no rules to hold you back.
