The Story

An idea can trigger many diverse thoughts, which in turn lead to ideation. Stickman Ideates strips are made from free clipart available online that is edited to convey thought-provoking ideas.

Stickman Ideates came out of a peculiar ideation process in itself. Having come across a few positive posts every day, I started sharing these on my story which eventually led to a few great and deep conversations. I realised that I wanted to do this on a larger platform. But there are just so many "motivational quotes" pages out there, I didn't want to be just another one. I wanted to spread ideas in a simple yet creative manner. To say I'm bad at hand-drawn art would be a praise to me, and I am not a designer either. I needed a way to portray simplistic messages which didn't require a lot of artistic skill, but a mind for connection and visual storytelling. And here-in came the idea of Stickman Ideates. What can be a more simplistic representation of my viewer - a human - and something that doesn't require a lot of skill to edit around? A stickman. And simplistic figures are a proven way to convey powerful messages.

Since each individual's thought process will vary based on their background, the objective of these strips is simply to ignite that individualistic thought process by visually cueing the reader towards a relatable situation.
