Lastly I was inspired by the amazing illustrators at TB that create those beautiful full color works of art that showcase Hula Girls, Sportfishing, Parrots, Casinos, Lounges, Sports and many others. I chose to compliment their style with a more simplified vintage art style taken from mid-century matchbook art, polynesian menus, and the slick art style of the 1950's ad agencies. By hand-drawing and distressing the final illustration, you get the look of a retro tee. Choosing the subject matter and font styles was a fun project and my research made me realize how deep TB could go with this art style.
