as creative who normally remains in the digital realm, making a shirt is not only a special little project for you to work on based off a band or singer you know, but it’s also a great keepsake in the off chance their actual merch stand is a blood bath! and you get to look super cool! and wear your art!
plus you can do things like put your own boobs on a shirt! made this based off of the song sinner by the last dinner party (seeing them in toronto at the end of the month hehe)

This is not a post saying you shouldn’t buy band merch. Not at all! This is a big support for bands.
This is more a rec for giving a new life to old or new shirts. With some fabric paint (you can get pens also) you can get really creative. This one I’ve done for the album Bright Flight from Silver Jews (Tennessee lyrics on the back).
One artist I inspire myself a lot is Katie from @sandw1tchshop (instagram)

[for yourself not for sale, unless u want to] my entry level deadhead status is showing but I absolutely LOVE just coming up with my own design for a band / artist Im a fan of. I use a heat press on some thrifted shirts and go to TOWN. Sorry but there’s a very limited selection of cool Liz Phair shirts for cheap so why not just make my own sick ass design. Pictured below are just a few. Bonus fun points for minor cropping

on a VERY big cyanotype kick lately so I have been plotting and tinkering and wanted to make myself something special and unique so I captured the essence of girlhood aka dumped the contents of my tote bag and printed it ONTO the bag (is this meta - also pls ignore the bleed this is literally only my fifth time doing this)
