35 Flavours

Here’s a T-shirt design that’s on critique over at Threadless.com. It’s a hand drawn illustration that I drew on the #8 Halsted bus in Chicago.  The sketch was then brought into Adobe Photoshop and coloured all sorts of different colours. It’s the type of illustration that makes me want to spell color like this: colour. You know what I mean.

Here it is shown on a pastacio coloured T-shirt. Mmmmm, Pistacio. Go vote for it because I want to wear it. Thanks, you’re the best.

35flavoursHere’s the original sketch done with my very own hands and brain with a bic pen on some sketchbook paper.  Drawing on the bus is a fun challenge because it often causes squiggles in your lines. Neat.

I also love the discolouration of the paper in this picture. It’s mostly from a bad scanner. If anyone feels like buying me a new one, please feel free: http://www.amazon.com/wishlist/2NIBFJOYI7EGE.
