Which of my paintings should I turn into a Threadless design?

I've just come out of a computer design class and I've become much more comfortable with Illustrator and I'd like to get back into submitting designs. I've been working on a large group of paintings over here... which of those should I base a design off of to submit?

I'm thinking of either "Mother" or "Someone Else's Sunset." What do you guys think?

I don't know, but you've got some great work!

i think #s 17 and 11 could do well on this site

Maltzmania on May 04 '08 at 5:22pm

i'd say "Coterie"

What bsweber wrote. Great work!

Thanks everyone!

Yeah, #17 I could see as well. Coterie... maybe. That would be a difficult one to emulate in vectors. Thanks!

Fantastic stuff - love it.

Id say any of them they are all great..

Thanks!

hmm. I think I'll be doing "someone else's sunset." Colors will be difficult to decide though.

I agree with most about doing #11, Coterie. It has an interesting narrative. It's whimsical, funny, beautifully drawn, and I believe would lend itself to a vector drawing.

If you don't know already, threadless is now doing simulated process printing and other print and ink treatments. See submission kit, print techniques.

In simulated process it's not just CMYK. They can do way more than 4 colors and the screen colors are picked to maximize the design's colors. I found some cool examples of simulated process where they show you the screen colors one by one. Just scroll over the 1st color and then the 2nd, etc., to see the color sequence.

I would go for #11!

Yeah, definitely Coterie. Someone Else's Sunset sounds like a good decision. And maybe Conquered Credence.

Wow i wish i had your talent... i'd love anything you'd turn in to a threadless sub

ir0cko on May 04 '08 at 8:36pm

so nice!

glad to see you around again.

leliophelia on May 04 '08 at 10:18pm

thanks guys!

Mm, yeah, perhaps Coterie might work. I'm having trouble seeing it as a vector though, because it's so much about the background and texture... but I may give it a shot!

And thanks Quister for the resources!!

I think everyone is pointing you in the right direction with #11. You have some really interesting and beautiful work.
