Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well.-Vincent Van Gogh

Hi steemians !

**And Yes ! I'm back again with another blog and I'm a bit embarrassed because of my face but I can't show my work if I ain't wearing it right ? Haha xD **

** But lets cut to the chase, I'm a big fan of Vincent Van Gogh and ever since I wanted to buy a shirt of his famous work "starry night" but I found out its too expensive or its not available in my country so I just had an idea of making one for my own.I had a hard time because his style was a challenge and I've use regular acrylic which I know is not the best for clothing but I've worn and washed it multiple times and its still nice :) I absolutely love it and having the idea of how much work I put into it and its one of a kind makes it more special ❤**

so the pictures below are the process of how I made it

Amazingggg!!! This would be a great idea @nessyquel! Customizing our shirts with our own Arts.

Nice one

Thank you @smaeunabs! :) there is a lot of awesome artist here and it would be fantastic if we can show our work by the clothing that we wear,and its another form of advertizing too wherever we go. :D

Indeed! You can also earn some bucks if you'll sell hand-painted shirts with love.

Hahahaha great stuff!!! Vincent would have loved to have a t-shirt like that I am sure :D

Hahahha i bet he'd paint his works on t-shirts too xD

Its really cool to walk around with your own drawing on your shirt eh? I did it as well, and I want to pick it up again after a lot of years... I took it a bit more industrial approach, bought all the stuff to screen print, ... this is one of the shirts I made,... The notorious picture of Che Guevara, updated to how it would look today :))

Wow ! My shirt is no where as close as awesome to that xD. I absoutly think you should start making your own shirts again and why not try selling them? Your design is way cooler than branded shirts in the market and i think you would make a fortune

Well, the idea is indeed to try making shirts again, and try the business. I dont want to work for somebody else anymore, and this would be a very nice way out. I will make a blog of the next shirt I will make, so you can see how it works, this screenprinting. I find your shirt more special because you painted it by hand, putting a lot of effort in that one shirt! This is more creating the negative print, and then print the ink in a machine-like way... But creating the negatives is a funny process :))
And besides, I am not aiming to fortune at all, I would be very happy if I could support myself already hahahahahah :D

Hey miloooo! :) sorry took me a while to reply i barely get on steemit lately. Well i believe youre gonna be successful in what you are planning milo ! you have good skill in making the shirts and the prints are really nice and bad ass so i think that i lot of people will like it xD and you're absoulutely correct working for someone is stressful and its hard to grow and make something on your own without any concent but if you have your own shop or bussiness you can be able to manage your own time and you dont have any limit in what you can do :) and i bet you'll be making a lot of money from it xD you'll have awesome products so you wont have a hard time selling them
