Stencil 201 is an eBook!



So much news to report. Aside from Stencil Style 101‘s imminent arrival, we’re tiptoeing into the realm of eBooks with Stencil 201. Sure, eBooks, digital, Kindle, Nook, and iPad are all we’ve heard in the last few years, so luckily our publisher was game to give it a whirl. Let us know what you think! Stencil 201, featuring our friends Erica Domesek of P.S. – I made this and embroiderer Jenny Hart, among others, is available on Kindle and iBooks. That’s Ed pictured above, holding up a glowing version on the iPad.

Stencil1 meets Stained by Sharpie for our Stencil 201 Book Launch

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!

Stencil1 201 in ACTION!

One thing I have learned in working for myself and creating my own company is to not think you can do it all. Learning to trust other creatives with your “baby” is a very important thing. This new stop motion video by Little Aaron and Friends just way exceeded my expectations. This team of animators created such a fun piece to simply demonstrate what’s in Stencil 201 and what can you do with it. I love the style, art student meets DIY – what could be more fitting for Stencil1! I hope you enjoy the video. Thanks Little Aaron & Friends!

Are you Curious?

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!

Stencil1 at SFMOMA for Book Signing & Demo = FUN!

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!
