Hello loyal readers and Happy Easter!

Welcome to my “Easter Eggs” design awards. Today I decided to take a break from the daily shirt grind and hand out some individual awards. Over the last month, there have been a ton of amazing shirts! I wanted take a day to recognize those designs that really made me stop and marvel. Think of it like bringing these designs back to life in the spirit of the Easter Holiday! Enjoy!

Category: I F***ING LOVE THESE SHIRTS!

Okay, so I was really bummed that these shirts didn’t make the cut or fit into any of my categories. Think of these as my “honorable mentions” if you will. The point is, I really love these shirts and I can’t explain why!

I want to give a shout out to ALL the designs I’ve had the pleasure of covering since I started this blog. Without creative talent like the artists featured today, my blog would have no reason to exist. Thanks to all the artists, followers, and anyone who has checked out jjlockhARTdesign. Stay tuned for more daily shirt reviews and coming soon, “from website to doorstep” reviews!

“Even in a time of intergalactic crisis, people still want to roll them bones.” It looks like we have the Martian of Doves card! I can imagine the Martians taking over Vegas and living it up with these uniquely alien playing cards. I love the blues, greens, and reds used in the alien brains and the nice shine on the head-gear. Interesting, undulating lines and decorative frame used as a background.

Thank You Buzatron

04/18/2014 Top 3 Pick; Coldest Planet in the Galaxy

“And I thought they smelled bad on the outside“. A clever mash-up of the ICEE brand and the ice planet from Star Wars, Hoth. Very nice thick lined illustration of tauntaun keeping warm in a cute sweater. The chilled lettering and nice striped block color background nicely conveys the frosty beverage and destination.

Thank You BeastPop

04/18/2014 Top 3 Pick; The Curse of the Care Were

Watch out for this Tenderheart Bear, especially when the Care moon is full! Interesting juxtaposition of the bright, happy colors to the muscular and fierce werewolf. Wonderful illustration of this bright pink creature that looks like he just ripped off his clothes.  I enjoy the smiling sun next to the figure’s big long teeth. You can’t help but smile at this shirt!

Thank You Sean Anton Husbands
