i have a lot of things to catch up on but the first one that i’ll quickly address is that i’ve been updating my bonfire t-shirt shop.

those who’ve followed me for a while know i’ve used all manner of print-on-demand stores over the years for my graphic designs, most recently teespring (which is now just called spring). i do still have a few old designs up on teespring but they had a major technical overhaul a few years back and archived a lot of my designs and told me i’d have to start all over basically, relisting them… so i instead chose to go elsewhere. if i was gonna have to put all the effort into relisting everything, it was going to be on a different site that was less buggy and more aesthetically pleasing to look at. hence, bonfire. there are probably better print-on-demand sites than bonfire but i’ve bought several shirts from other artists via bonfire and always been happy with the quality, plus i really like their visual interface, so for now i’m happy to be there.

anyways, so given the moment we are in right now in this country, i thought it would be good to have a way to offer several of my popular protest/resistance wear designs. i know a lot of you already have these but some of you have mentioned you’ve worn yours out and many folks are new to me and my designs so maybe they will find new audiences. at this point i’ve got the classic resist, the evergreen the people united will never be defeated, and still my personal favorite, keep loving keep fighting. i have a few more to go from the vaults and then i’d really like to get some new designs together. but i need to make some money first so i can afford to re-up my subscriptions to photoshop and illustrator, which i use to make my designs. right now i really can’t afford the subscriptions. so hopefully getting these designs up will generate some funds towards that goal.

also, i’ve just tonight launched my buy art! design, which has never been available before for purchase as a shirt. i made stickers of this design a while back and went so far as to get a few samples of the shirt made, to make sure it looked ok, but then never launched a shirt campaign. so i’m correcting that now! it’s a simple block letter design that’s bold and attention-getting. my samples were printed on black shirts and i think it looks best that way but i know folks have lots of opinions about having too many black shirts so there are other dark color options with the white lettering available. let the artists in your life know about it or better yet, gift them one!

more designs are on the way, and i have more updates coming for the blog. but that’s it for tonight. hope everyone’s doing as well as you can given this country’s rapid descent into authoritarianism. hang in there, and keep resisting.
