About my design

by couture
This was meant to play off how people choose their mates similarly to how they choose their food. Both food and people fill you up in different ways!

this would be ten times better without the heart..i already see the people kissing and it's nice, but the heart just makes it too straightforward, and in comparison, is too cutesy in style.

Is it a vase, or two people in profile? hehe



I like the idea and the colors. I'd get it on charcoal. $5

the nutrition facts should be different since they are two different people

I could do without the heart, but either way works. Great concept.

Thanks for the comments guys! Originally the nutrition facts WERE supposed to be different, I had made them on different images and then just pasted them into the profiles but I did the same set of facts twice and didn't notice until after I submitted the design :( And yeah I went off the vase idea, that always fascinated me when I was younger!

I would lose the heart and keep it black and white on a black tee.

sorry, I give it a 0 because it looks too much like my own design. http://www.threadless.com/submission/94988/The_Kiss

i love this design, but i agree it would be a little better w/out the heart. Great design though!

@bluesunset- Yeah because two people kissing/close-up in profile is the most unheard of and original design ever. I've honestly never seen your image until you linked to it. TBH I didn't know how I wanted the woman's hair to look like so I used paint splotches to blend the profiles into the background better and to make the nutrition facts look a little grungier. I've already said my inspiration was off the profile/vase negative/positive space image and yours doesn't use that comparison. So I do understand why you would think that but your piece isn't anything original or out of the box in the first place so the only thing tying them together is profiles and paint splotches and many people on threadless use those.

I think different nutrition facts would be cool & no heart, but its a really awesome design. I didnt even see the faces at first

i like the design but i think the heart is not neccessary or to change the design style of it. but overall its a really nice design and im jealous!

Love it. :) Wish the nutrition facts were different, but we've already been over that. Oo, maybe you could make the heart blotchier? It wouldn't look quite so "cutesy" that way. :) Good design anyway!!

I like the blotchy heart idea. After reading everyone's comments the heart really does look way too cutesy! Thanks for all the suggestions :) I'm definitely going to change the nutrition facts!

What if the nutrition facts were for a human being? It would add a bit more concept behind it - what we are made of in comparison to the food we eat
