A black thrifted t-shirt hand painted with mossy human skull resting amongst grass and flowers. I have a fascination with life, death, skulls and forest imagery, which is where the inspiration from this design came from. The shirt has been washed, and is safe to machine wash. Do not iron directly on the paint. I find good quality plain t-shirts in op shops with very little signs of wear, and paint the designs on by hand with a blend of acrylic paint and fabric medium. Shopping second-hand clothing is the most sustainable way to buy clothing, giving clothes new life where they otherwise would have ended up in landfills. The fashion industry is one of the most wasteful industries in the modern day, and choosing to give old clothing a new life is an amazing way to fight that, and still look great.
