- Cheeming
Cheeming Boey is a California-based artist who has gained notarity for the AMAZING art he creates on coffee cups. By combining two very simple things, paper cups and Sharpie Pens, he ceates museum-worthy masterpieces that continue to ignite interest around the globe. In the same way that Warhol made soup cans famous, Boey is pushing the limits of pop culture with his coffee cups.
This veteran Sharpie Squad member uses Sharpie Pens to create his intricately designed Joe-holders and then sells the cups online at iamboey.com. Beyond being featured in the OC Register and on maxim.com, he is also the man behind the cups in Sharpie’s 2011 magazine ad for Sharpie Pen as part of the Start with Sharpie campaign.
Not only has Cheeming been busy busting out amazing new work and ad campaigns, he has also just returned from a nine-week stint driving around the U.S. and documenting his travels comic book-style– complete with video highlights– while also working on his literary debut, funded completely through Kickstarter.
Follow Boey’s adventures on Twitter & Facebook and IAmBoey.com. Trust me, your cup will runneth over.
Fantastic…..
Good Luck man. Don’t just follow your dreams for yourself. Do it for the rest of us who didn’t quite reach them…
LIQUID PENCIL TECHNOLOGY – BLACK LIQUID – MAYBE OTHER COLOURS IN THE LIQUID PENCIL. THAT WOULD BE NICE. YOU COULD OPEN UP SOMETHING TOTALLY NEW WITH THIS TECHNOLOGY. GREAT IDEA. REMEMBER THE SOFT LEAD MECHANICAL COLOURED PENCILS A FEW YEARS AGO – ALWAYS BREAKING! – NOW A PERSON WON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT. “FANTASTIC” PEOPLE. RWMDRON……LONGTIME SHARPIE USER…..40 PLUS YEARS. BYE FOR NOW.
