Laser Bread

About my design

by Laser Bread   
(Wait a couple secs to see the shirt and detail)



There was just something powerful about portraying these words through mascara running down a woman's face. This phrase certainly applies to democracy and life as well.



This design could either be 2 color (black and red) on a white shirt, with a load of black ink and using the negative space for the image. Or it could be 3 color (white, red and black) on a black shirt. My favorite is 2 color with use of negative space. That would make the most out of the brush strokes around the face, but both ways would work. This is my preferred placement, but could be lower, higher or smaller.



Painted with acrylics on marker paper.

it's about time someone thinks outside of the box for this theme, not everything has to be spelled out and americanized to still make sense within the context of the contest. it's super awesomeeeee.

i $5d earlier but forgot to say so.
