practice random acts of art.

I like to make shirts for people that inspire me.  I randomly have design ideas pop into my head when I am talking to someone or telling a story about them.  I have more ideas than I have time to make screenprinted t-shirts, but I am on a mission to make all of the images that have popped in my head.

I would like to introduce you to my latest creation.  It was inspired by my lovely collaborator of the last 2 1/2 years, Lisa Rasmussen.



 I think this came about as we were having one of our weekly meetings.  It is our mantra and it is what we advocate the entire world do.  So, go out and practice random acts of art.  And, while you are at it, take photos and send them our way.  We would love to see what you are up to.

You can check out more of my upcycled t-shirt creations at my online shop, upcycled unlimited.

If you would like to purchase on of your own, they are available for sale online.  All of the shirts are made from reused t-shirts.  I make t-shirts from reused clothing for two reasons:  It saves money and I can pass that savings on to you, my customers.  And, why not make an old shirt new again and save the need for making a brand new shirt?
