Garance Dore does Demi Moore on the cover of Elle.
I just want to say to everyone like me who chose slightly more complicated paths, the roads less traveled, the ones with lots of roadblocks and long stretches of anguish, I just want to say that the most important thing is to always be moving toward your desire.
Words to live by…
Cherry Bomb T-shirt
Metaphorical linguistics get in a head-on collision with pixel art as pseudo-fractal art rides shotgun! Yeah yeah, that doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue I know, but it does make for a bomb-blast of cherry goodness across your chest. So what are you waiting for? It goes on sale on July 1st at midnight US CST. (GMT -6) There no artist to credit on this one-it was done in-house, so I hope you like it.
Due to the nature of this shirt’s design, I’m attaching two more photos so you can get the effect from different distances…

Of course, this means it’s your last chance to get a print of “Creative on Amber” currently on our home page before it goes into the archive forever on July 1st. As always, if you like this design, let us know in the comments. If you hate it, tell us why. The more feedback we get, the better.
Democrazy - For Dreaming T-shirt
o0OdemocrazyO0o is a killer New Zealand designer with a penchant for fantastic doodles with lots of great detail. He’s done this design especially for 200nipples and I’m pretty excited about it. I always try to pick art that I’d want to wear and this one is definitely in that category. In his own words:
o0OdemocrazyO0o is a Graphic Artist with a day job in Graphic Design. Scribbling artwork onto T-Shirts, Skateboards and Canvas have become his creative therapy outlet…
His family resides in Aotearoa (new Zealand) and is just surviving this years winter (not to mention snowtrolls)… brrr
He has a love for creating in lots of mediums with a love of music, animation, computer art and smell creation. He has a lovely family that don’t hit him much….
A big shout out to the 200 Nipple Clan for letting me run amok…
“Creative on Amber” has tons of neat little details, so I’m attaching a detail shot below. This shirt will go on sale at 12:00am on June 1st, 2009 on the home page. This is also the start of our new scheduling. Instead of every 4 weeks, we’re now featuring a new shirt on the 1st of every month. (If that’s too hard to remember, just sign up for our new shirt notice service.)
You can catch up with o0OdemocrazyO0o and see more of his illustrations at his Deviant Art profile page. And I think it’s rather fitting that he currently has this written in the questionnaire section of his Deviant Art profile:
Skin of choice: I’ve always like the skin on my nipples…
The fates obviously meant for him to have artwork featured with us at some point. Here’s that detail shot I promised you:

I wish I had a real ice-cream fetching robot… *sigh*

Canary Yellow by Alice
Our next design for sale is Canary Yellow by Alice…
I was born in Kent and grew up around Sevenoaks. After studying Graphic Design at school, I decided to move on to sculpture for University. I graduated from the University of Hertfordshire with a 1st class BA in Model Design in 2005. Not having much else to do, I stayed on for a further 2 years to complete an MA in the same subject (The University still won’t give me my certificate because they say I owe them money, so I don’t know what I got for that.) I worked as a sculptor for a product-design consultancy in Windsor for most of 2006, but was forced out of sculpting by all the adverse reactions I was having to the poisonous chemicals used in action-figures. Thus, I returned to my first love; drawing. I’ve taken the long way around, but…well, actually I can’t say it’s been ‘fun’. It has been informative, and I’ve met some unforgettable people along the way…and a few other ‘people I’d like to forget’. I currently work full-time for a design consultancy in London, where I provide concept art (London 2012 Olympic Planning Commitee), storyboards (Muller, Wrigley’s) and Logo designs (Pepsi Max).
You can learn more about Alice and see more of her work at her website. I’m pretty excited about this tee. To me, it’s kind of an unsettling combination of something dark with something that’s delicate; pretty and deranged. It goes on sale tonight at midnight.

UPDATE: As requested, I’m posting a deatil shot of this design. (There will also be a detail shot on the hoe page as usual when it goes on sale.) Click the pic for a larger version.

Ben Chlapek - Worthless
Ben Chlapek was the first designer we featured here at 200Nipples. I personally love his design asthetic and he’s done a lot of killer poster work in his short design career so far. He currently has a write up in Present Magazine, a Kansas City specific rag “presenting the best of Kansas City.” You can find the article here. You can catch up with ben at NeverSleeping.com.
Stupid 3333 - Gaping Void
Hugh Macleod over at Gaping Void draws cartoons on the back of business cards in his spare time. His wonderful scriblings can be funny, insightful and heart breaking. He also maintains the hard-to-overate essay on unlocking your potential: How To Be Creative. I Read the whole thing at least once a year. It makes me wish I new what my magnum opus was, I think HTBC is his.
“3D Samurai” by Brooklyn Hurst will be for sale on the home page starting at Midnight (US CST) Tonight.
“Hey, what’s your shirt mean?”
“It means that if you had stupid looking glasses on you could see that what appears to be normal cotton fabric actually cages a warrior’s soul.”
“Wow, that’s cool, I’m really jealous.”
“Yeah, you look really jealous.”
Enjoy!
(This also means it’s your last chance to score your one-of-a-kind print of “Intrusion.” As always, when this new one goes on sale, that one comes down.)
