The Mark Rothko Shirt

My first batch of Mr Davis shirts arrived, and they’re looking sharp. I think the sky blue is my favorite. The brown shirt, however, didn’t work right; it would have had the colors been more accurate, but instead the brown of the shirt and the brown of the printing are pretty much the same color. (N.B. I changed the shirt for sale to a black design, so future shirts won’t be this way.)

Witness:


The end result of the brown is very Rothko, and is making me a lot happier than I’d imagined.

    Yes, now he can lurk eyes twinkling, unseen in the dark waiting for flesh to consume with his maliciously grinning mouth and fearsome claws.

    I ordered one of the brown ones — now that I know it’s been changed, I may have to keep that one NWT as a collector’s item. ;)

    Rothko lives!!!!!!! albeit in Davis square. Think I’ll take the black…Rothko would like that as well.

    Hm. My shirts arrived today, and I thought I ordered brown on brown, but I got black on brown. Shrug. Oh well.

    I’m so excited to wear my Mr. Davis shirt for ArtBeat tomorrow. We’re doing a Flickr meetup!
