Day 73



Thanks to Ash of startup service Graphic Tide, another day has been smashed off of my challenge calendar. The brand new line of tees from the UK's own Graphic Tide includes this intriguing article, along with a whole heap of others fresh from the printing press. I'd be lion if I said I wasn't impressed with how the king of the jungle looks here. Yep, I made that joke.

Upon this almost luminous, very brave orange canvas is the profile of an equally brave lion's face, composed entirely from artistic slashes and drips of ink. The use of layered, deliberately overlapped colouring gives the design some pretty incredible depth, achieving a more solid feel to the illustration.

The design is one of the contributions to the website as part of their artist-to-garment printing service, offering designers the opportunity to get their work transformed from portfolio stuffers into ready to wear T-shirt gold.
