Original
t-shirt illustration & design for online mail order catalog
company What on Earth of Hudson, Ohio. The t-shirt series I have
been involved with are the continuing line of international pub
t-shirts. What on Earth supplies the name of the bar and the country
in which it is located, and the artist is given the task of developing
the design.
Pharaoh's
Nightclub t-shirt illustration was an obvious design for me as
I am a big fan of Egyptian art and design. The concept for Pharoah's
Nightclub drew from wanting to incorporating a strong symmetrical
design and also to avoid the obvious - using a Pharaoh. The entire
illustration for the t-shirt was done from scratch in Adobe Illustrator.
Color choices were based on the imagery of the sun setting over
a desert, with a clear blue sky in contrast above. A sunburst
was added for visual impact and sun imagery reinforcement, and
the final touch was a small pyramid design element to add to the
Egyptian theme in this t-shirt illustration.
