The people suck designs were influenced by a number of factors – most involving people sucking.
I think the main influence though was when my car was broken into for the second time – for no apparent reason. They didn’t take anything. They just busted up my locks and threw all my stuff around.

I couldn’t help but wonder, what would a square peg do if it came across a round whole…. probably nothing.
The original design ‘my other shirt is also black’ was created for a friend who always seems to wear black tees. After it was created, the other designs just seem to come naturally.
The ‘definitions’ t-shirts were based off of a set of designs I did a long time ago, and were created with teenagers and goths in mind.
