New Shirt Design (Patreon)
Content
I haven't put out a t-shirt design for a while. I sell shirts and other merch on my threadless shop. Threadless is a print on demand platform where an artist can upload a design and then they take care of everything else. Printing, customer service, shipping. They take the majority of what you make. But I just think of it like passive income. Sort of.
I barely make any money on threadless. We're talking like 5 dollars a month. Maybe. But I like that someone can wear my art on a t shirt. I just love t-shirts but hate the headache of having to keep inventory, and do shipping and all of that.
Anyways. I've become kind of picky about the art I put on the t-shirts on there. If I just upload a digitized version of a painting sometimes the color is off and it just looks weird.
I personally like a black t-shirt with a white graphic. And I wanted to make shirts that I actually want to wear.
Plus, a simple white graphic takes all the guess work out of it. It's going to look exactly how I want it to on the shirt.
So I make my life more difficult by doing a pen and ink drawing of the painting I want to use.
Then I take it into photoshop and eliminate everything except for the white graphic. then I upload it.
Hmm. Now that I'm trying to explain it in words I think this might be an interesting video idea.
Anyway. This is one of the new shirt designs I'll probably make a few more. If you have any suggestions of paintings I did last year that I should make shirts out of, let me know!
Happy Feb 20th Everybody
I have two go to genres of music for the rain. Black Metal and Jazz.
Today I listened to the new Hulder album (Black Metal.)
And nublues by Joel Ross (Jazz.)
I'm drinking a strong coffee right now.
Have Fun
Goodnight Sweeties
