Josh, 30 years old designer from Canada. Meet him on his website, buy his art on Redbubble!
Tell us something about this design.
I wanted to make a design inspired by Victorianera product labels and signs!
Who is and where does Josh come from?
I’m just a regular guy who loves music, art, and video games. Born and raised on the prairies of Canada.
How long have you been in the tshirt world?
I submitted my very first design back in October, 2008!
What would you suggest to an aspiring tshirt designer?
Don’t rush a design. Take the time you need to make it the way you want. What helps is to plan it out, maybe with a quick sketch, so you don’t have to work from your mind’s eye all the time. Visual references are extremely helpful.
What’s a day in the life of Josh like?
Typically pretty uneventful! Work and then chilling out at home, either gaming or a combo of Netflix/designing. Toss in some practices with my band, Legends, or hanging out with friends. A generally relaxed life! Haha.
Mac or PC?
The Mac/PC wars are ridiculous now. I used Macs in school and they were awesome. I only prefer PC because I can get something powerful and affordable, where a Mac of the same price would probably be more entry level. So PC, even if it doesn’t last as long as a Mac. For graphic software, they’re pretty much equal these days. Ultimately it’s just preference!
Post-apocalyptic world. No trace of human race. It happens that you’ve survived and managed to save…
3 tvseries: The Office, Parks and Recreation, Man vs Wild (I mean I have to learn how to survive somehow).
3 movies: Napoleon Dynamite, The Thing, Prometheus (talk to the hand, haters).
3 videogames: Earthbound (SNES), Bloodborne (PS4), Fallout 3 (sorry, 4. PS4)
3 cds: (this is tough) MuteMath “Vitals”, Radiohead “In Rainbows”, Bon Iver “Bon Iver”.
3 books: Wasteland Survival Guide ;), The Complete Works of H.P. Lovecraft, and the Holy Bible, yo! That’s a broad variety, I know, haha.
One t-shirt: just a plain black one so sweat stains don’t show. I still need to look somewhat decent.
You are the governor of the world. What’s the first thing you would do?
Get Superman to toss all the nuclear warheads into the sun.
You’ve just won a DeLorean time machine. Which historic period/time/moment would you like to visit?
1000 years into the future!
Say whatever you want to the Tee Tee community!!
Thanks for showcasing my design! You guys are great!
