9. Domino Tournament T-Shirt Design

Created: October 2004
Type of Piece: Family Commission
Role: Lead Designer & Airbrush Artists
Media: Airbrushing and Createx Colors

This was my very first airbrushed T-shirt. It was for my father’s annual domino tournament. The design used basic colors and the font was sketched with no intent of using a specific typograph. The mickey mouse hand was used because the customer was fond of mickey as a child. The statement “Domino Mutha-Fu#*@!!!” was my touch from a movie quote from the character named Doughboy in the movie “Boys n the Hood”. After looking at this product again, I can see multiple flaws and other items that need adjustment and shading. The T-Shirt was received well and I received other requests because of this.
