Like I said before in a now deleted blog, I plan on spending more time refining each design to create higher quality work.

This submission started out as a sketch of a bonsai tree. I looked at photos for some basic reference, but the overall shape of the tree in my sketch was original. I scanned my drawing and turned it into vector art, adding all the bark and leaf detail on the computer.

I chose brown and tan ink colors for a khaki shirt so that it would have an overall earthen feel. Two potential placements for this shirt are center or off-center on the chest, as per the picture examples.

If anyone wants to zoom in, I have uploaded a SWF file which can be viewed here:

very nice.
5$

Very nice Indeed.

I likey.

I love this.

SUPER GOOD!! 5

I LOVE THIS 5$

kick ass. 5$

although i must say i dig the offset design rather than the centered one.

I would totally wear this as is, but I would love a little alteration to either the top or the bottom, to make it a bit less symmetrical (even with the image flip).

Absolutely beautiful.

Awesome but smaller...

Love the centered design. I wouldn't buy it on khaki (can't wear it) but would on natural or just about anything else. 5.

I like trees

put it on brown and black too, though

I like your design, but the khaki shirt comprising a khaki sunset does not do the design justice. 4 as is.

i like the color, i would buy it

yeah man, i can dig it.

looks like the design of danel-san's gi in The Karate Kid

5 + buy!

I would place it center, that is probably just me.

stunning.

if i were you, i'd keep in the center. :) 5!

centered. $5 on black.

Please... off center! It is a beautiful piece and is much more interesting in that placement. I am fine with your color choice but would happily buy on anything but black.

Best of luck!

oooohh im in love with this design!! quite possibly one of the best ive seen and much better than several which have been printed...great quality work $5

off center! off center!

center center, nice work, more colour chices keep more happy, but i like it like this

I'd buy it on a brown tshirt, MAYBE black, but definitally brown. Maybe an earthy Green would be a nice color too.
Go Center! wooo
$5 though

Hmm. The design just needs something to make it more interesting, to add a bit of narrative drama to it.

Beautiful. 5+buy, off-centred. Symmetry makes the world go round.

The palish brown which it is on is MOST LOVELY, as is the design. Elegant/excellent. Probably won't get printed though, lacks a little *
zing* though i would buy it
