This design is sort of a tribute with a twist to Rene Magritte's "This is not a pipe".
Having a picture of a tee, saying this is not a tee, while being on a tee, adds a whole new dimension to the idea ;)
Thanks for all the comments :)
The font is called Kaufmann.
I did not know about that one tracerbullet - but while the inspiration may have been the same, I think/hope my design is different enough to make a cool tee on its own.
While i don't agree this is at all the same concept as the already printed Magritte tribute, I don't think Threadless is going to print another shirt that pays tribute in this style to that piece. It's a nice double comment on the homage, so maybe submit to other places? Good luck with it!
I just have to add, as an art student: Rene Magritte's painting is actually titled "The treacher of images" and not "This is not a pipe", even though that it what it says on the painting.
Thanks for clarifying Silent-T (it's been a while since I studied art history).
I'm lovin all the comments and advice, this is my first submission, so keep em coming!
