Welcome to a whole month of the 64MillionArtists January Prompts!
Today’s challenge is to choose an object that has a story you can tell, imagining that the object is displayed in a museum setting. I have chosen the stick that I use to produce my line and wash art works.
The stick was picked up years ago from a footpath. It probably has it’s own story to tell. But this is mine…

Magnificent mark making from simple tools. Martin used sticks and ink to produce images of beauty and imagination. He recorded daily his life in sketchbooks using as few lines as possible. Thick and thin black line wondering across the page. Truly magnificent mark making.

For ideas of how I cut sticks and make marks with them see my youtube video.
