Lihai Sharpie Car

The LiHai Ride, done by Darel Carey of LiHai Art, entirely in Fine-point Sharpie! Watch the time-lapse video in the link below.

Darel-C has been an artist for as long as he can remember. Raised in the Inland Empire, SoCal, in the city of Colton, his art reflects the cultural influences around him while growing up. He always had an artistic interest and enjoyed drawing as a hobby. This, combined with his love for music, led him into the hip-hop world. In middle school he got into breaking and graffiti; in high school he continued with graffiti and began to DJ; after high school he tattooed for a while… but he ultimately entered the US Air Force. During his military hiatus, he saw many places, learned two languages (one of which is Chinese, hence the name LiHai), and met many good people. While in the military he continued to draw on and off, mostly commissions for bands, rap groups, and organizations. But after 11 years, he experienced an epiphany, and his goals in life crystallized. He left the Air Force and went back to SoCal to pursue his passion: To create his own art, to see his own ideas come to life, and to have an impact on the art world and the world at large. Among other projects, he “Sharpied” his Honda Civic in a time-lapse video, and plans to add to the design, possibly covering the entire car!
