Over the last few years i have formed a fun and fulfilling relationship with Sharpie. I love these no-brainer connections, we are perfect together! WEll, I was glad to see they created some fantastic new fabric markers, Stained by Sharpie. They make t-shirt stenciling so easy! Well, the fun crew over there interviewed me and posted my video of using the new Stained markers, hope you like! See it here.


Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo. Charles and Ray Eames. Bjork and Matthew Barney. Synergistic unions resulting in creative genius. And now Stencil1 stencils meet Stained by Sharpie Fabric Markers!  I am so happy that Sharpie has released these fabric markers, they are ideal for t-shirt making as well as customizing all sorts of other apparel. I brought these new markers to the book launch party for my new book Stencil 201 so that attendees could make something. I cut up some canvas into patches and let the crowd loose! Check out the video, I think you’ll see people had such a fun time with the stencils and the new markers! Thanks Sharpie for making this event such an ease!

My trip to San Francisco would not be as complete if I didn’t get to do this event at the Curiosity Shoppe. I love this shop! It has the most select, thought-out designer gifts. The owners, Lauren and Derek, are also guests in my new book Stencil 201, in which they show us a tasteful way to stencil grasscloth for use as placemats.

Well, the event coincided with a holiday street fair in the Mission so we had plenty of visitors who got to MAKE SOMETHING.

Some used Stained by Sharpie Fabric Markers to make canvas patches…Others used Clearsnap’s Colorbox pigment Ink Pads to make wooden postcards.

An added bonus was I got to finally meet a legend in the DIY world who I had emailed with for years – Grace Hawthorne, one of the founders of Readymade Magazine!Her new venture, Paper Punk, is well worth checking out, talk about a customized building experience!

And so the night was a sweet success, the only thing sweeter were these stenciled cookies by Sumner & Co, aka A Baker in Brooklyn, aka Christian Sumner is also a guest in Stencil 201 and shows y’all how to do it!


In 1995, I interned at the SFMOMA. The museum was just built and I color corrected images in their digital lab among other things. I was thrilled just to be a part of the museum! Well, I had a new thrilling time at the SFMOMA when I did a book signing and demo/DIY table!  I basically let people from age 3 to 75 try out some Stencil1 stencils from Stencil 201 and they seemed to really enjoy it! We used Clearsnap’s COLORBOX Pigment Ink Pads to stencil wooden postcards and Stained by Sharpie fabric markers to stencil canvas patches.  Here’s a few images from the event. Thank you SFMOMA and those who attended, great job!
