Founder of ArtTok
ArtTok cultivates a space for creatives on social media to connect with one another and discuss more effective ways to inspire the next generation of artists through digital platforms.
​Over 50 artists with a combined following of over 9 million are part of the organization. Together, the collective launched multiple project initiatives including the Stick Figure Archive and Character Turnaround.
​
​​
​We challenged artists of all ages, experience levels, and backgrounds to draw a stick figure. Every image submitted to ArtTok's Instagram during the 72-hour open call was archived and published on our website.
​
In collecting all these drawings, we're reminded of the importance of accessibility, creativity, and fun within the world of art. While it's true that anybody can draw a stick figure, this collection intends to celebrate how special it is that we all choose to.
Impact

We wanted EVERYTHING from the good, bad, ugly, and more to be in this publication to show what a community of artists can produce in a body of work that highlighted the power of collaboration. The submitted works were then cut out and edited into the following GIF.
