Be Still, Life.

I'm beyond happy to say that I have a new shirt up for sale at Threadless. I also want to say that I think this shirt is very much about who I am as an artist. I don't know why that is, but I just feel like it's true. Designing shirts is sometimes confusing because you want to make things people will like and maybe that means not doing exactly what you personally like all the time. I did that a bit when I was starting out. It can be hard to find you style, or at least it was for me. But the point is, this one looks the way I wanted it to look and I would stand up and say "This is what I'm about. Take it or leave it" What was amazing was that the Threadless community really supported it - so thank you so much to all of them. Long story short, I'm really proud of it.

The other awesome thing here is that it's available on a girly boatneck tee! So for all you girls that hate getting choked crew neck shirts, at last your neck can be free. It's always exciting to see new shirt styles come along. Maybe v-necks are next? Check it out at Threadless.

On the road again

The theme for the derby this week was road trip so I absolutely could not to anything other than a montage for my beloved, albeit somewhat broken, Airstream. Actually, the Airstream in the drawing isn't the one I really travel in, it's another one that we're working on getting road ready, but it has a more retro shape, so that's why I used it here. I wanted to get all the fun and good times of being on the road into a shirt and I'm happy with how it turned out. VOTE HERE.

Thanks Shakespeare

The Verona Apothecary made it into 2nd place in the derby, despite being one color and on a white shirt. Thank you very very much for the votes and support. Can't wait to see how it prints!

Buy it here while it lasts.

Where to find the things lovers need...

At the Verona Apothecary of course. They carry all that kind of stuff. You know, like poison and daggers and such. My entry for the Shakespeare derby remembers this wonderful apothecary that helped out the 2 most famous star crossed lovers of all time.

A win I have made!

My design Blocks Build You! got 3rd place in the derby. Lots of thanks to the voters. After watching other people do it over and over again, I'm happy to finally be able to capitalize on the little wooters love of video games myself. Haha! Great success! Now build that wall comrade - mother Russia thanks you.

Society 6

This is really really cool and I'd never heard of it before. Society6 seems, and I say seems because it took me a while to figure it out, seem to be a place to share art and network and, hey, if you feel like it, even sell some work. I found out about it through Threadless. They're going to be launching a shop there. I'm quite impressed by the quality of the work here and happy to get involved. Check it out for yourself and see what I've uploaded so far in my studio.

Deja Vu

Two weeks to work on the entries - YAY! Decided to go with something I hardly ever touch: video games. There's one for Tetris (my fav, hear the theme song now!) and one for Mario.

It was fun saying things with a Russian accent all week while working on the Tetris one. BTW, The shiny young commi in the front is my brother in law.
