A modern art exhibition named "The Sharpie" is being held on Nanchang street in Wuxi from Nov 30-Dec 19. The exhibition's opening night saw numerous art enthusiasts come to take a look at the mesmerizing pieces on display.
The artist, an American named Aaron Ennis, used Sharpies – the famous brand of markers – to create his works of art. "I walked to Walmart one day, and was looking at paint before I realized that I wouldn't be able to take all of it back with me. I saw a pack of Sharpies on sale for $7 and thought that I would use them instead," said Ennis.
