Ever wanted to be a touch more inventive with your Sharpie? John Clark draws film noir inspired Sharpie portraits on vintage book pages, leaving a bit of text floating in the background to hint at the background of the piece. The result is a one-of-a-kind “story†– a portrait with a literary history, a story within a story. Simple, bold, clean and dramatic, it’s easy to mistake John’s drawings for altered photographs or Photoshop trickery. They’re all hand-drawn though – and he can custom make portraits of individuals to really add some mystery to your walls. I love them – if only i was as flash with a Sharpie as he is!
