Hi Jenn! It is an entirely aesthetic decision- sometimes I start and think I have chosen the wrong color... but usually it works out. I bought a rainbow of Sharpies to choose from, but gravitate towards certain colors.
I collect old postcards from thrift stores. I place them in an envelope titled 'vacation destination.' When I ride the bus I take one out and uncap a Sharpie marker and place it in the middle of the postcard. As the bus stops and sways, jerks and slides- the Sharpie does too. These drawings serve as a record of my daily commute- the least exciting of trips- marked on top of an image representing the most exciting of trips... the ones where you stop and buy postcards...
The drawings are catalogued by the date the bus ride/drawing was made, not by the date I posted it to this site. Click on the images for a larger view! Really- they look better larger!

Very original, Robin. How do you decide which marker color to use?
