I am from Arlington, Texas. I’ve been drawing pretty much my whole life. I don’t think I have the skill or mental capacity to be considered an artist, but I appreciate art and have always admired the greats. I really like comic book art and children’s books art. I’m really inspired by Maurice Sendak, I think his illustrations in “Where the Wild Things Are” are pretty amazing.
This shirt is pretty much about a giant turtle that fell asleep near the shore one day, and woke up with a castle on his back. Unfortunate, right?

I’m just curious… Is this printed from seam to seam, a wrap around, or is it cut off on the sides and it was simply stretched for the blanks?

cute idea and cute design…you drew the details of the turtle very well.

This is nice.
I like the water on the bottom of the tee, it makes it more unique.
Usually I don’t like tees so boring in color but the boring colors make this design look more laid back.
I like it.

i’m also wondering about the print… a wrap around would be so great!

Yeah, what JadenKale said.
oh and nice work to the artist

It will wrap around depending on the size of shirt. It will not wrap around the entire front and back of the shirt if thtas what you are thinking. The screen fades to the shirt color

I like turtles.

I’m really excited to see how this one turns out. It should be awesome, the water will crop off the bottom and we are maxing out the screen sizes here by using a vertical and horizontal one at the same time!

Bummer, I missed this one. It reminds me of the classic philosophical term “turtles all the way down”. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turtles_all_the_way_down
