MidwestLove Art & Design

Super fun t-shirt illustration for Kid, You’ll Move Mountains based on my wife’s recent, awesome thrift store find. This idea was initially pitched to Butch Walker, but ultimately rejected. Kid was cool enough to find some merit in it enough to want to buy it as their own. They requested the first few lines of the immortal Moby Dick to be what appears on the floating page as a tie in to their recent full length, Loomings, which shares it’s title with the first chapter of the big whale book.

This was initially designed as a three color with some nice cream and yellow offsetting the blues, but Kid requested we take it down to a single color as they’re planning on screening them all themselves and one color is much easier to wrangle.

Let me know what you guys think. Also, keep your ears to the ground, as there is some big news coming up. What’s that? A MidwestLove store that sells limited edition prints, perchance…? We shall see.
