Carpe Diem

Hard to believe, perhaps, but I've got another Threadless submission up for voting.  This is just a general design, meaning that it wasn't done for any particular design challenge, just for the thrill of it!  And the hope that it gets printed and I get some extra spending monies and an even stronger foundation on Threadless.  As I said in my last post most of my ideas start with a pun and then eventually transform into something else, and that is very much the case with Carpe Diem.

And so, without further ado, let your votes and comments ring clear through the sky like the dawning of a bright new day!  Or, like the meticulous digitizing of 1 and 0's in a coded sequence to give your opinions manifest!  Whichever encourages you to head on over and check out the design, give it a vote, and maybe even leave a comment or elect to "buy it as a tee," or "as a print."  Thanks again everyone!



I hope the true start to everyone's Fall season is going swimmingly, stop by again soon for more fun stuff!

Hello there everyone, sorry for the slight drought in posts lately, I've been busy trying to put the finishing touches on a number of designs/illustrations at the same time so the completion rate has been slightly slowed.  I promise there are many to come in the (nearly) immediate future.  The first and foremost is this design I just submitted to Threadless for voting.  It was inspired by the current (at the time) design challenge for Movember, or, the Moustache Month of November.  As with many of my designs, the basis is found in a pun, but through the imagery and resolution of the drawing, it becomes something more.  In this case, the pun is the pencil moustache that a young man sports in defiance/admiration for his elders and forebears.  I was inspired by Victorian framework and fashion, particularly in the drawing style and the color choices.  And I had a lot of fun drawing all the facial hair.

Thanks to all of you who helped vote for my last design, I really appreciate all the support and encouragement.  It would be great to have that same support for this design.  SO, if you feel so inclined then by all means stop by and let your voice be heard!  Remember: if you want to leave a comment or "buy it as a tee" (check that box before voting on the number system) to increase the chances that the design will be selected for printing then I totally support and encourage you!

Thanks again for checking in and don't be shy about voting!





Happy viewing!
