OUR Mission
Be Nice Ink is on a mission, using art to spark creativity, spread positivity, and make the world a better place —one doodle at a time.
The problem is negativity! It’s everywhere—lurking, weak, lazy, and easy to find. It shows up in stress, depression, anger, division, loneliness, and self-doubt. It’s one of our biggest challenges, and it’s spreading!
We have to do something about it. Art is powerful.
Nice is strong, but it doesn’t come easy. We can build a resilient, positive mindset with practice. That positive energy is contagious and key to everything we do.
We can’t do it alone! So grab your paints, markers & crayons, and let’s make our mark together. With paint and a positive attitude, we can defeat negativity—one doodle at a time.

Spark Creativity - Spread Positivity - Change the World -
Since the beginning of time, humans have used art to express themselves—from cave paintings to the pyramids to the graffiti murals in our cities today. And here’s something cool:
Coloring for just 5 minutes a day can lower stress and anxiety—that’s why art therapy is used to help kids and adults with trauma, depression, and even PTSD (American Art Therapy Association, 2018).
Studies show that creative activities like painting and drawing improve focus, reduce stress, and even help fight memory loss in older adults (Journal of Aging Studies, 2020).
If we all spent more time around a table coloring together, the world would be a better place.

Art Is Powerful
Nice Is Strong
Building a positive mental attitude isn’t just a good idea—it’s scientifically proven to help people learn better, work harder, and feel happier:
Drawing and creativity light up the brain’s prefrontal cortex—our “happiness center”—boosting dopamine, the chemical that makes us feel good (NeuroImage Journal, 2014).
Doodling isn’t just fun—it actually helps your brain! One study found that people who doodled while listening to information remembered 29% more than those who didn’t (Applied Cognitive Psychology, 2009).
People with a positive mindset perform 31% better in school and work than those with a negative outlook (Harvard Business Review, 2011).

About us
Be Nice Ink was started by a dad who loved to draw as a kid.
Unfortunately, like many kids who grow up, life took over. He built a career, a loving family, and a positive attitude, but something was missing. His art faded into the background, reduced to doodles on Post-its during meetings—only to end up in the trash… and that was sad.
Lucky for him, 20 years later, his two little boys—who loved to color—sparked his creativity. He started sketching stories and creating characters just for them.
His family pushed him to get his art out of the house and into the world. Together, they put their spin on the classic lemonade stand, turning art into stickers. They experienced how art can make people smile, spread positivity and raise thousands of dollars for good causes.
What started as a simple way to connect with his kids sparked a forgotten passion—proving that it’s never too late to make an impact and rediscover what truly makes you happy.
The Book - Saving the world… one doodle at a time.
This is a story about two brothers and their imaginary sidekick, Paint Man. They have big ideas about using art to spark creativity, spread positivity, and make the world a better place.
But the world’s got a big problem—negativity! It’s lurking everywhere—weak, lazy, and easy to find… and it’s spreading!
Follow along as we work to bring this story to life.
