Like I mentioned in my last post, I've been getting into t-shirt design my participating in Woot derbies. I started last week with the topic "Gold." Here's the design I came up with:

I titled it Fly Me to the Moon (I couldn't get Frankie's song out of my head). It's a little zany, but I really enjoyed working on it and learned a lot. Like...how to work with only six colors. That was probably the most difficult part of my first design along with picking out my Pantone's BEFORE choosing random colors. It was rather tedious to go through and compare all my colors to the Pantone list to find substitutes, so I made sure to pick out my colors before moving out of the sketch stage on my Queen's Best Friend design.

Long time no post. I have some backlogged sketches I need to show, but I'm going to start out with something new I've been trying lately: Tshirt designs! I never thought I'd find myself designing t-shirts and enjoying the heck out of it, but it's happened. We can't predict everything. I entered the last two Shirt.Woot derbies, and I'll start by posting this week's entry. The topic is England:

I might be the only one, but the corgis were my favorite part of the opening ceremony for the London Olympics this year. They were ADORABLE, so there was no way I could pass up the chance to do a corgi-related design for this week's derby.
