I love the style of old cartoons from the 20's and 30's so this design is an homage to that. It has some other elements I find myself drawn to - stars, puffs of smoke, india ink and magic.
Cheers! Feeling a little less doom-and-gloom now. It's my special, ancient, secret Threadless formula after all. Cute animal + stars + cute concept. How bad can it do, right?
Oh, wait-a-sec, Union Bunny had the same formula. *shivers* Back to impending doom.
Thanks gg, I still have a fondness for this one too actually, despite the simple execution.
One theory in quantum mechanics suggests that every probability is eventually expressed and it's postulated that the universe "splits" into separate dimensions at each branch of probability, creating an almost infinite number of alternate worlds. So in all likelihood Threadless printed this already in a different dimension and you're wearing right now :)
