Pet Set Dog
After much discussion the AOP with the pets photos on it we decided was just to risky to try with overseas printing with our current vendor. When Claudia and Shelley first saw the two prints they loved the version with the crowns and type banners. This version is the one we are going with, I worked it over from the one shown here, it has more crowns and less banners.
I have done more tees with different animals, we are still deciding on which one or ones to print. I love the border collie, it is just kind of every dog. The dalmatian is just too iconic. These are not the final animals shown here just place holders.
My home studio
The glass top table is my drawing table, LOVE. The computer table is metal that I just painted green. I love this space, it is wonderful to work in! Thought you might get a kick out of seeing it, it is so much better in person.
In the huge red cabinet I have some of my vintage metal picnic baskets that hold all my craft and art supplies.

Pet Tees
Another Pet Idea
I drew cats on a prissy pillow, they aren't shown here. The dog of course would be sleeping as well, not as shown here. This is cute, but seemed like a bit more of the same. Could sell well. I still like the pop art pets better.
After thinking about this idea, I am going to push it through and see where it ends up. We like it.

Dog tee with a frame
Queen Products
Dave and I took a hard look the Queen products the way they were and we just hate the white women's tee shirt and the AOP was good but just not fresh enough. We have this light purple sleeper in house. So we would just have the tee and sleeper in this section. We would like to move away from white for women's tees. We would use this purple tee in the women's tees as well.
They feel fresher and more modern on the color, Claudia has a technique that she is excited about, she thinks they will look really beautiful. I was also talking to claudia saying it would be nice to get the darker purple on the tee in the art on the sleeper so the two coordinate more.
Cat and Dog Products
I drew and drew cats and dogs, did some nice stuff but it just felt like a lot of the same. So I came up with these pop art cats and dogs. We love them! The cat is not final, just a place holder. They would say on them "Cats Rule" and "Dogs Rule". The tee art I am still working out. I am going to try some ornate borders around the animals. These AOP patterns would be the only new on the line. We pulled the queen AOP, just wasn't fresh enough.
The sleepers to match would be the same colors as the tees. Would have lots of dogs and cats.
So for new this intro, we would just have the AOP dog and cat and 2 colored sleepers and 3 new women's colored tees. Two of which are here in the pet and would also use in a collection of women's tees.
