Bill Taylor - Whiteboard Artist


Aspiring cartoonist Bill Taylor from Durham, North Carolina uses the whiteboard in his office as a canvas to express his artistic abilities. A data manager by day, Taylor spends 2 to 5 minutes each day to complete his masterpieces that include the works of artists like Monet, Banksy, Van Gogh, etc

Each piece takes an average of about 6 weeks or more to complete

He gets a lot of people who come by just to see the progress or see what the next choice is. Says Taylor, "I do my daily chunk on it in the time it takes most people to get a cup of coffee from the break room."

Each finished piece is left for a couple of days before he erases it!

  4. Hey Veronica, How is life in your neck of the woods these days? My daughter and her family are with us for the next week in the islands. we are sharing a small space (in the boat) and being conscious of each others' boundaries. A wonderful bonding time, but edgy all the same. How are your boys and hubby? Hoping all is well with you.
