This design was based off of several pages I scanned in from my personal sketchbook. I draw and paint in an 9x12 sketchbook very often; I write things and paint and doodle anything that comes to mind. I went back and looked through the pages, and a page in particular inspired me, where I had written "paint the silence" over and over. That is what drawing is to me - painting over the silence of a blank page. (Excuse my cheesiness.)



I re-worked and combined the sketcbook scans in the computer to add color and cohesion, and this is my result!

Seriously one of the best T-designs I've seen on here. Very loose and artistic. I hope you get printed, cause I want it!

Awesome.

SEXY.

oooooohhhh.. very pretty, i wanna run my fingers over it!

\o/

I like how the person in blue seems to be voicing the art. Well done!

Wow. And this isnt even simulated process?

Really awesome design! I love the colours and the arrangement of the sketches. Really fluid and coherent, and nice title too! I'd buy this!

O_O



WoW!





I L O V E T H I S!

DUDE, I LOVE YOUR STYLE

SERIOUSLY.

I write and draw [used to paint] but never have done together in a sketchbook, such a great idea

I'm tellin u, one of the best and unique designs I've ever seen in my WHOLE LIFE!, lol

$ 5!

Awesome!

It's fun in an ironic, run-around-in-circles way. XD

GREAT $5

this is really amazing

Awesome! Print!

sweet

i would love this withOUT the brush. i don't really get what is with so many designs including the brush / pencil / artist that drew or is actively drawing the picture. this is so fantastic otherwise...

totally agree. this would be awesome without the brush and the message would still be clear.

or make the brush REALLY subtle

love this!

rad, this will get printed

i really love this as is. but i think i would rather there wasnt a paintbrush it becomes like all the other in progress type shirts. but i would still buy it with the paintbrush included.

Positively gorgeous. I'd buy this, definitely.

Great use of colours!

i love it but i think it could do withought the paintbrush. without the paintbrush it would have more of a graffiti feel to it. nice work

Yeah, the paintbrush was part of my original sketch, but it's definitely easily removable from the design. Thanks for all the nice comments, everyone. :)

this is gorgeous! yeah, i don't like the paintbrush either, but it doesn't make this any less awesome. $5

cool and colorful style, a nice addition to this contest.

like the textures. good job!

This is my favorite one of yours so far! $5

love it!!!

it's a great texture!

how did you do that?
