Lovin it. I agree though that a bowl would have been easier on the ideas but the tank it unique (I usually see the bowl designs on tshirts, etc).

I think the saying is great but perhaps you could expand on it. Keep the fish theme but delve more into the "adventure."

Existentially cute, but I think the fish needs to be a bit bigger. Also, there should be aquarium stuff in there with him (at least some gravel and plants), to enhance the absurdity.

i think it's supposed to be ironic, that's why the tank is so big/boring.

would look better in a bowl than a rectangular aquarium. also, instead of a speech bubble, I'd make it a thought bubble.

Yeah. Bowl, smaller, thought bubble.

I got the irony right away. I love it. In fact, I don't think you even need the text. I thought the illustration alone said it all. $5, yep.

no matter the shape, i love the symbolism of this!

I think it's hysterical, and I like the rectangle. Print it.

...one thing though: when your work is that minimalistic, you really have to pay attention to every "minor" detail you actually put in there - what I mean to say is: change the font of the text. It doesn't work with your style at all. also that text bubble, I think a simple line going out from the fishtank would do better. I am still loving it :) Cheers.

I think it's adorable and I got the irony right away but it looks a little strange (off-balance) on the shirt.

i think itd be cooler in the classic round bowl



and the talk bubble was more oval comic-like

the blandness of it is great, but maybe a bowl instead of a box?
