Making my own Tee Shirts
You may have seen a couple of them already, but the last few of weeks, I have been spending my free minutes making my own tee shirts. I'm basically using the typical stencil method, but until recently I didn't know about using Spray Mount to get the stencils sticking to the shirt and I use acrylic paint rolled on with a sponge brush and not spray. I have also been printing on clear transparency sheets and cutting those, but am thinking of switching to paper since, apparently, transparency is a rare and precious commodity right now ($30 a pack??). Here are some process pictures of my Dharma shirt. If you are interested, you can get all of the vectors I've used on the tees site. Enjoy!

Simple and customizable, but after continually seeing all of the pretty things that James White keeps putting out, I really just wanted to make something colorful. The icon is entirely vector, which was really difficult to achieve with the color blending of the ...

Enjoy. (By the way, everyone seemed ...
