I did a reporduction of Chuck Close's famous "Big Self Potrait". This is the outline of his hair and glasses. Enjoy and let me know what you think!



The original piece at 40"x30" can be seen here.

love chuck close and think it is awsome

Maybe a little bigger and rotate it clockwise slightly

Maybe a little bigger and rotate it clockwise slightly

@ buxxx: thank you sir



@Joelnz: rotating it sounds good. when you said, that I realized that I don't always step back and look at work on the computer screen as I do with work on paper. thanks

Who's chuck close?

an awesome and famous artist. you should google him.

Nah it's cool. But that's a reason this could not do so well. If people don't know who he is then they won't want him on a T-shirt. Also it's very simple. Could you add some more graphics to make it more interesting?

I saw an exhibit of his about 8yrs ago in Seattle. I know what picture you're speaking of.



I think you may have an issue here though. If people knew who he was you think that they might not want him on a shirt, but if they don't...?



Plus, I'm not sure the legalities of it.

i think chuck close is famous enough to be recognized by most people, but i don't think this works as a shirt for threadless... (i'm not sure of the legalities of it either; shirts like this might exist already)

this are all very good points. i will try to add some more graphics and look into the legalities of it. thanks.
