The creator of “Shticks,” Veronica Anderson has been turning everyone she knows into stick people figures since she was in her early teens. Her first book showcases her progression, from sketchy, private hand-drawn cartoons to the final ellegant, stylized figures that gave birth to the “Shticks” idea. Veronica worked for years as an interpreter and translator and has developed a keen sense for conveying feelings, ideas and even intentions into her trademark illustrations. In her early teens she started cartooning about things that happened to her, family and friends but they started out as your regular stick people cartoons. “People loved that I drew things that happened, or my drummed up interpretation of what happened. The more I drew the more people liked my cartoons–and the more connected I felt to people.” She explains. “I started giving my stick people better quality definition, my lines started getting more stylized and I did flesh the sticks out a bit more for better conveyance of the human body expression.” The result of years of playing with sticks is The Shticks!

Wild Fact About Me I married Bruce Anderson.
My Philosophy Two statements that will serve you very well. The first is: There will always be war. There will always be those who aggravate within others a sense of trouble in order to promote the solution that they already have their mind made up about. And so you're never going to come into agreement as a mass consciousness that this is "the way." There will always be disagreements; therefore, there will always be turmoil; there will always be war.

The other statement, that is our favorite is: Well-Being will always abound, so the dominant experience of the majority of people will always be one of Well-Being. So you can decide, at any point in time, in what part of this you want to play. You can use anything as your excuse to align with Well-being, or you can use anything as your excuse to not align. The thing that we think is at the heart of this discussion is my own personal power. We think that's what you are, sort of, struggling for and reaching for.
