Architectual Boston from me, You and Who

My t-shirt finally arrived! It is exciting to see my design on the t-shirt at last! If you want to wear Architectual Boston as well, you can order them here. You will be supporting a good cause when you do. Either way, spread the love!

Architectural Boston and Once Upon a Time

This is the design I did for You and Who, a company that sells t-shirts and give to charitable organizations with every sale. You and Who just launched their City Pride line, a series of t-shirts that feature the name of a city, each one designed by an artist from that city. I was so thrilled when they contacted me and asked if I would do the shirt from Boston. I thought it would be a challenge to come up with a design that both represented the city, and also had the city's name in the design. However, when your city has a lot of character, then it is not hard to find inspiration.

You can order t-shirts here: You and Who.

Note: The Architectural Boston t-shirt was designed and made before the Boston Marathon bombings. The sale of this shirt will benefit homeless shelters in Boston, not the charities that were set up after the bombings. There is, however, another t-shirt on You and Who's website that benefits the One Fund for the victims of the terrorism (with the One Fund's logo on it) if you are looking for a way to support that charity also.

Other news: I got my copy of Once Upon a Time, the fairy tale with a twist-themed anthology by Gurukitty Studios in Canada. I illustrated Troy Minkowsky's alternative version of the Hansel and Gretel story, which was fun to make, but a sad, sad story indeed. You can buy a copy of Once Upon a Time here if you're interested in quirky fairy tales (strictly for adults!). If you don't want to buy the $15 printed book, you can download the digital version for $4. Enjoy!

Obscura Estetica

I am participating in an exhibit along with Kristilyn that we have named Obscura Estetica at the Millenium Restaurant, 3094 Washington Street, Boston (Eagleston Square in JP). We're having an opening reception on Thursday, March 14, 6.00PM-8.00PM, so feel free to stop by! The restaurant is nice and informal and has good food. I will exhibit pages I illustrated for Dave Kender's The Ragbox, chapter 5 ("The Salon"). If you can't make it to the opening reception, the pictures are up now and until March 25, so you can check them out!

What else is new? I have stuff for sale at Society6 in case you are looking for some prints, phone cases, and even throw pillows, cards, t-shirts and hoodies. Here are some of the items you can find there:
