T-Shirt Trend: Object Photo Tees

Just a little inspiration for the weekend T-shirt designers out there. I haven't seen a lot of tees like these, but love the basic design idea...black & white or two color photos of objects that let the T-shirt color come through. I could see this technique used for pets (dog breeds?), foods (foodie shirts), and other popular T-shirt categories.

With Cafepress' direct printing method, this technique would be easy to do with their light colored tees, and no need to make your image transparent.

Enjoy!

Friday Inspiration: Illustration Mundo

Just a little visual stimulation for Friday afternoon. I stumbled across Illustration Mundo when visiting Prickie today.

Described as "a place where illustration gets all the love," Illustration Mundo is a site dedicated only to illustration.

If you're looking for some great random images to get the creative juices flowing, try out the "100" section of the site that features 100 random images from illustrators' submissions. Every time you refresh, you'll see 100 more random images. I think I like the patchwork look of them all together more than I like the images by themselves.

You can also submit your own art for free (as long as it's quality work) and discuss illustration related topics in their forum.

Can you feel the love?
