The above photograph contains my favorite marker, named by my daughter “The Money Maker.” I learned today that this is the last Design Art Marker here in my studio and that this marker has been discontinued. I have these last words to share; CAUTION: Contains Xyleme – Use with adequate ventilation. Direct contact may cause skin or eye irritation. If ingested, may be harmful if absorbed through gastrointestinal tract. Not for use by children”, “RIP. I will miss your intoxicating scent,  efficient strokes and magical blackness. You made me the designer I am and will be missed almost as much as my 3M spray-mount adhesive, hot wax machine, , x-acto knife, compugraphic typesetter, letroset rubdown type, t-square and triangle, rapidograph pen, my stand-up 60″ artist drawing table and the stat-machine and all it’s toxic (where the hell is that intern?) chemical stench and mess.”
