A new venture has been launched. Due to popular demand and the modern miracle of cafepress.com, I am happy to announce that various semi-necessary products -- T-shirts, coffee mugs, postcards, etc. -- imprinted with images created by yours truly are going to be available at F.T. Rea’s Inkbites.To get the venture underway, the 'toon above, which mocks George Allen's Macaca gaffe, is the first image that you can order from cafepress. As a T-shirt it is available on a variety of models. The whole transaction can be done online -- quick and easy.
Here's the art for the first SLANT T-shirt to be available in over 15 years. The oil painting was done in the mid-'90s, it appeared on a SLANT calendar. My goal for that piece was to figure out how to paint eyes that would follow the viewer, no matter where he stood. We've all seen those paintings in galleries/ museums, where the eyes seem to do that. It was an interesting challenge.Click here to go to F.T. Rea's Inkbites to learn more about that T-shir, or any of the designs below.
The painting was done in 1974 for a poster for a staff art show. The lettering "Biograph" is from a Biograph program, No. 59, in the spring of 1982.
