Threadless Submissions -2012

Threadless- 2012
Continuing with my previous folders these are all my submissions to threadless for 2012.  I'll continue to update it throughout the year.
"Death of Tin Man" on black or white for the "Threadless Loves Death" contest.  When I saw this contest listed I instantly thought of Jean Louis David's painting "Death of Marat". After spending some years in upstate NY, where Frank Baum's "The Wonderful Wizard of Oz" is still celebrated- I decided to do a mash up of both ideas. This is what I came up with.
I first did this piece for another tee shirt website.  Unfortunately the project didn't go anywhere but soon after Threadless held a contest called "Threadless Loves YOU!"  I thought this was perfect for it so I submitted it. Called "NJ Diner"- it combines my love of New Jersey, eating at diners & Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks" .
"The Dirty Dozen Doughnuts" is my latest submit to Threadless.  Yes I'm a big fan of movies & doughnuts so this idea was a natural.
My latest submits to threadless.  It was for their contest that partners with GAP.  They wanted something iconic, something that's a "GAP shirt".  I came up with 2 positive themes that I thought could work on a variety of colors, for both men, women & kids.  These shirts have scored the highest on threadless for me so far so I'll let you know if they get printed. The top shirt is called "Build It Up!" and the bottom one is "Soldier of Love".
My latest 2 submits to threadless- which were rejected.  I liked them as a spoof/fake public service announcement ad but they didn't agree.  I'd like to start a new folder here on behance of iphone/ipad skins and rework these 2 pieces into it.  
My three latest submits to threadless.  The first two are for their "Vote Bright Contest", basically design a political tee shirt- you pick the subject.  The last one is for all the stressed out people in the world, The Bubble-Wrap Destroy Monster.  
"Technology is a part of all of us"- these two all over prints I did for a tee shirt, but thinking about it some more I'd like to do it for an all over hoodie. I submitted this to threadless about a month ago, ahead of a few other postings here on behance, so now I'm playing catch up in this folder.
"The End is Near"- this is my latest to threadless but it was REJECTED!  To say I'm greatly disappointed is an understatement.  I really liked this piece and wanted it to get some votes.  Is toilet paper really that taboo for threadless?  I don't get it.  Toilet humor will now be off my list of artwork to submit to threadless.
"Life Preserver?" - on Light Blue for Threadless.
"When Dental Floss Goes Bad"- one of my latest submits to threadless.
"Which Flower Are You?"- my latest submit to threadless, also for one of their sponsored GAP tee shirt contests:  Threadless + GAP make Clever.
"Detachable Problems" on any grey tee shirt.  My last submit to Threadless for 2012.  I think I did 16 pieces for them this year- not all were accepted, but hey, that's why I show my work here on behance. Have many, many, many more to do for 2013- and beyond!
