As this is the first official post on the new Friendly Arctic P&D blog I wanted to make sure we had a good project to present to kick things off...
Last week we finished up a batch of shirts for this years Shakespeare in the park festival complete with our very own retro design. For this shirt we really pulled out all the stops. In order to make the print look like a truly vintage design we did a three color smear print to get the color transition just right and to make each shirt completely unique. For those of you in Nashville you should really go check out this years' Shakespeare productions down at Centennial Park. Hadassah and I went the other night and saw the Taming of the Shrew and had a great time. For more info about Shakespeare in the park go to www.nashvilleshakes.org
More to come...
We love these shirts!
ReplyDeleteAt your suggestion we went with the Canvas brand at they are very soft and gave us that retro look we wanted. And the water based ink and local hand made technique all meet our green mission!
The cast and crew had a special color swirl and they are so proud when they wear them!
Thank you Andy and Hadassah for providing such a wonderful souvenir for our patrons as well as a tool to help us with our Save Our Shakespeare fundraising campaign.
