This is my second shirt. I really love this piece. I’m already working on my next one for a local band I’ll post when it’s done.

Glad you asked! I do the whole thing myself. I have a handyman business, and it was cheaper to build a t shirt factory than it was to outfit my whole crew from a local print shop. I’ve always considered myself an artist first, so being able to work in a new medium SLAPS it feels so good. Now I’m even getting contracted from local bands to make their t shirts, which is huge for me and very exciting
That’s pretty cool!
Can you tell me abit about how you do it? I would love to print my my stuff on shirts too but I have no idea how realistic that would be :D
Sure! First I draw whatever on a piece of paper. Then I take a picture of it and trace it in Krita. I take that and import it to InkScape to convert to an SVG. Then I put that SVG on a 13x19 canvas so I can print it to a transparency.
The transparency then gets burned to a screen with an LED light that, frankly, sucks. I wash them out in the shower and then they’re ready to print! It’s not hard 👍
