About

I’m a graphic artist. My husband and best friend Adam and I live in our bad-ass co-op apartment in Sunnyside, Queens with our sweet, but obstinate beagle Chomsky. Adam and I have been happily married since 2003. He owns his own multi-platform entertainment company, BrightRed Pixels.

I decided to create a blog to show the creative process I go through when designing my tshirts. I have been working nonstop on my tshirt lines since May 07 when I first came up with the idea to block print Queens-inspired shirts.

My American-made graphic tees fuse unique modern graphics with old-school block printing techniques. Each design is carved into a linoleum block to produce a distinct vintage style print. No two shirts are exactly the same. Portion of the proceeds go towards community art classes, Queens organizations that support the arts, and artists working in Queens. I currently offer two graphic tshirt collections.

My Couture Line offers a collection of ultra-soft, ultra-comfy vintage style tees and limited edition handmade totes. Colors vary with each shirt since they are printed and dyed by hand. Tshirts are individually printed when an order is placed. These super sexy luxury tees have the perfect fit for the modern women.

My Queensbound Line offers Queens, NYC inspired tees for men and women. The designs reflect the spirit, culture and tonality of Queens. I also offer a selection of Queens-centric accessories and products.

I have lived in Queens since 2004 and I absolutely love it. I wanted shirts to represent my neighborhood, Sunnyside. Of course, there are no cool shirts for Queens since Queens isn’t given the props it deserves. Any Queens t-shirts that do exist are so ugly and badly designed that I would be embarrassed to walk around in them. Now I can walk around with pride in one of my shirts.
