About the design
on August 8, 2008
This design is an exploration of the t-shirt as a medium. It is really the (one of the?) only medium(s) where the art is expected, and welcome to be touched, so I tried to use specialty inks in a way that enhanced and worked with the design on this unique canvas.
I also tried my best to alleviate what would ultimately become a very heavy weight print, by breaking up large areas of color, using distress, water based inks, and the tee shirt's own green color instead of another green ink. Hope you enjoy.

Well done, but not for me

This design breaks free of all the sand traps and water hazards of an "inside the body on top of your shirt" design....it's an amazing exploration of like-minded shapes that are really something else entirely when you focus in instead of looking at the whole like most of Ste7en's pieces, but there's something more playful about this one. The bridge going between the lung water ponds is especially inspiring. love the ideas of all those inks, I'd tee up for this being printed normally or super-awesome-happytime-enhanced!

Is that green shirt color in the template, though? I would have loved to use that color for some past shirts. . .

I never thought I'd see a body parts design that rivals "Treasure Map," but of course it would be you to prove me wrong. This is really, really cool. I hope it gets printed.

God I love to hack around a course with a few beers and my friends. And since they would beg me to know where to get this texturfied awesomenes, $5 all the way.

neat!

Man, Ste7en, way to bring your game!
The use of the different inks really help out with this
design. At first a viewer will notice the body organ
shapes and then they'll notice it's a golf course, and
then they'll notice that the various textures of the design
on the shirt actually match a golf course. You'll be
jolting viewers 3 times with this cool design. Excellent
work on this!

Laid out well and thoughtful use of the specialties. Nice job.
