Serpents And Snakes

Serpents And Snakes from Lead & Light

I am always attracted to tees that are different and this is a great example. Mixing mythology with bold geometric shapes seems like an odd idea but it works really well. Part of the reason for this is the quality of the artwork. There is almost an insane amount of detail. I love how real those snakes look. The simplicity of white ink on black helps pull it all together and give it a classiness that it would lack with color.

Batman

Batman from Mr Four Fingers

I always get excited when I see someone doing new and unusual things with iconic imagery. In this instance it is Batman, but not as you have ever seen him before. Although it is that strange red mouth that jumps out at you, what I find really interesting is how the silhouette is so recognizable. With no facial characteristics it could really be anything, which proves the impact modern media has had on us all. The other thing that I find amazing is how the fade is done. Instead of using more traditional methods like halftones, lined triangles form a broken geometric pattern. It is such an unusual and interesting addition that I find myself continually drawn back to that part of the artwork.

I have seen a few modern takes on the Alphonse Mucha style but they have all been well known modern characters done in his style. This tee is something different. There are hints to Mucha here but the artist has imparted his own style which is much more modern. The sexy dj girl really takes that to another level though.
