Promo Shot
Take a gander at the nifty promo shot that DA is putting out: That's me, chilling in the backyard with a DA Myst print shirt, skinny jeans, my favorite red sandals, and some impromptu backdrop drapery. What you can't see is my mad dash between setting the...
Branching Out: Totes & Menfolk
This week brings a lot of new things to the DD shop. Namely, tote bags and shirts for the menfolk! (see pictures below) Now, these two particular tote bags have already been claimed, but I have some more blank bags in stock and will be printing them up soon. Also:...
Next Design: Elemental
My rough (but now ready to be screened) sketch-up of the four elements, the next design I'll be doing prints of.
Future Plans F.A.Q.
Are you only going to be doing women's t-shirts? Nope, certainly not. The shop is all women's right now simply because my designs so far have had a more feminine slant, and because most of the stock I have is women's shirts. I have a few men's t-shirts in stock, too,...

New Stock!
Target had Mossimo tees (super comfy) on sale, so I stocked up. Behold all of the possibilities! Edit: I didn't buy ALL of these today. This is just my shelf of stock
Partial Prints
I'm experimenting with doing partial prints off of the same screen. Here, it's isolated decorative elements from the Myst screen. This is the back/sleeve view. Should hit the shop tomorrow. Also: the design for the next screen is underway, stay tuned!
