I printed these on un-wrinkled silver American Apparel tees but printed an extra one for myself on a green, wrinkly, shirt.

So recently an order came across my desk to create some Affliction styled artwork for Texas Country Music singer Wade Bowen using just one color and including a guitar and some crosses. I used to freak out with orders like this but I’ve realized that with the right research and enough vellum I can tackle just about any request.

Behold the Wade Bowen Guitar and Crosses graphic mocked up on a V-neck. Doesn’t it just make you want to jump in the octagon and beat people up and stuff like that?

Please excuse the quality of this picture.

Amazing right? What was that third little lady looking at?

Well, I figured it out. I went ahead and jazzed up the image a bit by adding a Jamaican, love-able, monster that goes by Mon (like “hey man” – said with a jamaican accent). Mon just wanted to give these sweet, little, old ladies a giant hug, but you know how little old ladies can be. One of them felt threatened and had to give ol’ Mon a giant zap of laser power in hopes that he would retreat to his native Jamaican Island. Poor Mon.

I printed the 2 color image on sweaty-shop free American Apparel, tri-blend t-shirts and you can pick them up at Parts and Labour on South Congress right now, and all during SXSW.

Hey guys, just a quick reminder that you can still get the limited edition, signed and numbered, 5 color screenprinted poster AND t-shirt I designed for Nakatomi Inc, but you need to really hurry because after midnight tonight they will no longer be available. Click on this sentance to go do some shopping. Thanks for the support!!

This is an image I did a couple years ago that Tim saw and believed in enough to want to include into his project.
