About a week before her mother died author Tish McAllise Sjoberg asked her if she had any regrets. The answer was yes, her mother had always wanted to become an artist. After 73 years, that was her regret. Not that she had done something terrible or wronged someone, but that she wronged herself in an almost invisible way. Always putting others’ needs and wants first, she never became who she wanted to be.
Her mother’s regret became fuel for her own creative path. Tish thought she too could die without realizing her dream of becoming an artist. In a commitment to honor her mother’s life and regret, and to not let a single day go by where she didn’t honor her own desire to be an artist Tish embarked on her first 365 Days of Art project. She committed to make art every day for a year and McAllise Sjoberg never stopped. At publication of this book she celebrates of 20 years of making art daily.
“Artist is a verb. We don’t become an artist and then do art, we do art and then begin to feel like an artist.”-Tish McAllise Sjoberg

Scribble Art:
Tish McAllise Sjoberg
New Expanded Edition! Now with prompts for your own scribbles!
Ready, set, SCRIBBLE! Scribbling could be the native art form of the entire human race. As children it is our first visual language. As adults we may need to re-learn how to let go and scribble. In this playful book, author and artist Tish McAllise Sjoberg presents many of her concepts about making art. Scribble Art gives us permission to scribble, express and make art with no need for talent or education.
The scribble is the perfect medium for expressing emotions, relieving stress and playing, while simultaneously creating art. A scribble a day can help us be happier, healthier and more creative! The scribble is just the beginning—next add color—with blank pages to do your own scribbling, too!

ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
Tish McAllise Sjoberg
Tish McAllise Sjoberg has been creating art daily for over twenty. What began as a one-year project of doing art daily to honor her mother’s death and her mother’s regret that she had not become an artist, ignited a lifelong passion of using the arts to live a more inspired life. She began making art daily that first year and has never stopped. Art is woven into the fabric of her day, the fabric of her life. She now calls it her Creative Practice.
Tish has believed since she was a young child that everyone can create, not just a select few. Through her Expressive Arts Therapy training she began to find her inner artist, and since, has been offering the arts to all who want it for helping and healing. Her own path to creative confidence began by finding the simplest way to jump in and overcome her fears of the blank page. The scribble is a favorite as well as blind contour portraits.
