Charles Bukowski Woodcut Handprinted T-Shirt

Charles Bukowski is my favorite writer.  Have you seen my woodcut illustrated Ham on Rye letter press book.? It's one of the coolest projects I've ever been part of! I think this woodcut looks pretty cool too! 

These shirts are handprinted from my woodblocks onto 100% cotton Bella/Canvas.

⩙ My woodcuts are carved from Baltic Birch or Japanese Shina using an assortment of Japanese gouges printed on American-made presses, fueled by ice-cold Mountain Dew with Guided by Voices always playing loudly in the background!

⩙ These graphics are printed with oil-based relief ink. The sheer force of the printing process merges the ink into the fabric. You will lose a minimal amount of the initial brightness on the first washing. After that, the image will stabilize and look great- holding up for quite a long time.

⩙ These shirts are machine washable- we always wash ours inside out in cold water and dry on a low setting.

⩙ This is not an editioned print- each of these shirts may look slightly different in terms of placement and color due to my approach to printing.

⩙ Every purchase you make allows me to stay home with my wife Julie and our five children. It also allows me to invest more in additional materials and supplies to continue my lifetime pursuit of making woodcuts.
