I just finished up a t-shirt illustration – ‘The Hairy Canary‘ – for mail-order/catalog company What On Earth for their pub t-shirts line.
The basic premise of the t-shirt designs are as follows: the artist is given a choice of bar/pub names to choose from, and from there a design is worked up to go with the name. I believe all the bars & pubs are actual places, but these aren’t officially sanctioned or anything.
From the list I was given, the name ‘Hairy Canary’ just jumped out at me and I knew it was a theme that would spark a cool illustration.

I finally got around to getting one of my favorite personal cartoon pin-up illustrations — the ‘Girl In The Moon‘ — available for purchase over at my Zazzle store.
I have been meaning to get more artwork up there available for purchase, but recently client work has been pretty much taking up all my hours in the day.
Already available are some devil girl pinup illustration t-shirts, stickers, keychains and other items.

Rick over at MacMerc has just posted an excellent overview on the three main online print-on-demand t-shirt printing shops: CafePress, Zazzle and Spreadshirt. For artists considering using one of these services, this is a great in-depth review on the similarities/differences between all three shops and their printing methods, as well as the pros and cons of each service and type of printing. Included are samples of shirts from each company, as well as magnified images of the printing.

OK, so I am a bit jealous that I didn’t come up with the idea of turning famous dead presidents into cartoon zombies! OK OK, I’m really jealous that I didn’t come up with the idea of cartoon zombie presidents.
How cool are these? Drawn in a very 1950’s EC horror comic/Jack Davis-esque style, featuring Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. And to make sure they offended the religious folk out there, you have Zombie Pope and Zombie Jesus as well.
