Why subscribe to The Shticks?
Are you paying attention to your everyday experiences? Do funny, touching, insightful, heartwarming, or memorable things happen to you that you enjoy but then forget because life moves on and you get caught up in the hustle and bustle? These special moments can often be forgotten unless something random triggers your memory.
Welcome to The Shticks, where everyday moments come to life and are preserved through charming, simple stick figures. Inspired by everyday occurrences and facts, I use my own version of your everyday stick figures to illustrate stories and moments that resonate with people of all ages.
