We don't understand "stricks" -- oh, maybe you mean "streaks." You could say something like "I accidentally got marker all over my hands" or "I got streaks of color on my hands from the markers."

If the spots are from a marker, like a Sharpie, then instead of saying "I got marker ink on my hands" we might just say "I got marker on my hands". It's referring to the instrument rather than the product -- like "The kids got crayon all over the walls."

How about this with 'the'?

Look at the mark on your finger.

Can I add 'the' in this instance?
