MENTAL HEALTH POSITIVE – This product promotes positive messaging around mental health.
It took me over seven years but I finally felt ready to put my own drawings onto products. I did all the drawings in the space of one month when I was going through a lot of highs and lows for various reasons, so all the drawings reflect strong feelings that hopefully you can relate to and enjoy. We kept them all a bit rough and screen pulled them extra times to make the prints really bold and pop and help extend that drawn feel.
The You Are Okay tee is an expression of feeling overwhelmed and trying to find your own space – I tried showing this by including a lot on the back of the tee but only using white to make the character and his thoughts stand out. I included the message that helps me find my own space – “Draw, write and feel” as I use it as a creative outlet. I think everyone has their own creative outlet they just need to find. Finally, the character is positioned directly between the sun and the moon, which reflect happiness and sadness, symbolising the eternal struggle of trying to remain stable without getting too deep into either the highs or lows.
We screen printed it in both black and white to really give it a strong look, and printed this one on a heavier, more American style T-shirt with thicker ribbing and heavy weight cotton.
All tees are 100% ultra soft cotton, sourced ethically, and screen pulled by hand here in Sydney.
