Colorado Artists in Recovery

Get ready to play, experiment, and discover just how magical a simple Sharpie can be! In this six-week, hands-on workshop, you’ll dive into creative techniques that turn everyday markers into powerful art tools. Each week offers fresh prompts and low-pressure exercises designed to spark your imagination as you explore different kinds of marks, patterns, and images on a variety of fun surfaces.

From bold doodles to tiny treasures, you’ll try your hand at:

expressive mark-making

decorating personal objects

designing cards and gift bags

creating “itsy-bitsy” mini art

embellishing photos and magazine images

Along the way, you can expect plenty of art-looking, experimenting, laughing, and practicing new Sharpie techniques in a relaxed, encouraging environment. No prior experience needed—just curiosity, a love of doodling, and a willingness to see where your Sharpie takes you!
