Evil Shield Grunge Vector
I’m going to have to fly more, since I get time (and inspiration) when I’m flying to come up with some really good graphics, as you can see here. I’m enjoying mixing and matching different vectors, especially colorful ones and the results you can see here. Here’s the SEO plug – like you didn’t expect that! Evil shield grunge skull t-shirts, sweatshirts and more.
I have a few more ideas using this style that I’m going to explore, when I get a spare moment. For now though, if you want this design customized (adding text for example) you can use the contact form at the bottom of this page, or email me and let me know what you are looking for. If you want to purchase this vector it’s $15.99 (again, contact form or email for details) – if you want sole use it’s a whole lot more, always negotiable though – you know!

Gothic Angel
How about this for a diverse image? It’s Gothic, it’s angelic, it’s grunge, it’s confused but it’s a busy and very active design. I got caught up in this one and could not complete it – it took over a week of going back to it to get it right. Any who – here’s the SEO plug: Gothic angel t-shirts, sweatshirts and more!

Egyptian Skull – grunge with flare
This Egyptian grunge skull is somewhat horror like, and somewhat – well – regal. It’s a fantasy mix that I labored over for over a week. I don’t know what got hung up on designing this, but I finally got past the block. Any who – here’s the SEO plug: Egyptian skull gifts, t-shirts and much more.

Abstract Skull – new and colorful!
Here’s a grunge style skull design that hot off the artboard. This was a hard one to complete. I tried many variations in how to frame the background and not take away from the image. I got it in the end but it took a couple of days longer than normal. Any who – here’s the SEO plug: Abstract skull t-shirts, gifts and more.

Gothic Wings – another grunge, tattoo, Gothic style design
Here’s the latest, hot-off-the-press design. I’ve included elements across a couple of styles to achieve this look. There is Gothic, grunge, abstract, tattoo and a little horror mixed in, and the effect (in my humble opinion) is quite dramatic. So, as always, here’s the SEO plug: Goth wings t-shirts, gifts and more

Design Trilogy – Heart Skull
Wow – I’m really on a roll with this one – third in a row of the tattoo style, grunge skull designs. This one took under an hour and I had a lot of fun creating it. This time I decided not to use any text with it, but there can be text if needed – hint, hint! I wonder if Ed Hardy of Christian Audigier will hire me?
Here’s the plug – did you think I would forget it – SEO is important you know! Heart Skull t-shirts, sweatshirts and more! There – that wasn’t so bad now was it?

New Design – Gun Skull
Here’s the latest in the tattoo design, and it’s got attitude! I wasn’t sure where this one was going but I love where it ended up. It’s another eclectic mix of grunge vectors, with some creative font work and a little aging with a white mesh overlay. This one took two days to complete, mainly because I wanted a certain symmetry, and I wanted an image that looked full. I think I achieved both here. What do you think?

Provocative Tattoo Style Design
I’m still enjoying mixing styles together. Here I’ve mixed some horror with tattoo art, and added some flare with a sunset backdrop and literal black splash. You’d have thought that these wouldn’t work together, but they do. These tend to form on the fly – it’s mixing and matching and seeing what works. Then again, what works for me is just my opinion! what I am drawn too is color, and using these vectors is very colorful. Now for part of the marketing portion – remember, each one needs it’s SEO plug, so here it is: Red Lady t-shirts, gifts and more. If anyone has any ideas of how to better utilize SEO and SEM, let me know – that’s not my forte.
I have a few more ideas using the tatto0 styles and a whole lot of color – I’ll be working on those when I get a little more spare time. I’m toying with the idea of putting words on some of these, although I’m not so sure what they should say. Let me know if you have ideas about that.
For now though, if you want this design customized (words etc) email me at steve@steve-shead.com, and let me know what you are looking for. If you want to purchase this vector it’s $15.99 (again, email for details) – if you want sole use it’s a whole lot more!
New Design Release – Mystique Geisha
Here’s my latest design release, based on a Japanese Geisha. This one took a few hours to work in the look that I wanted to achieve, especially with the backgrounds and the drop shadows. Normally I don’t use drop shadows on images that I am using for apparel, but I thought it would make this image pop – which it did.
Here’s the SEO plug: Mystique Geisha t-shirts, gifts and more. You can order this one from my Cafepress store by click on the ’store’ link in the navigation bar above, or by going directly to my Cafepress store here.

DesignArt – The Color of Diverse Design
Design, art, graphics – things I could not do until computers came along. Armed with a computer the sky is the limit for me. And having a talent for the creative, and the intellect for technology (left and right brained), the sky is the limit. There is so much opportunity to venture into different realms of design using technology that I know I’ve just scratched the surface – but look how far I have come already!

Creativity and the product of artful design. You’ve seen some of my designs on pages on this web, and I’m going to post them again – just in case you missed them the first time around!
I’m not limited to just these styles and I am touting my services here. I can create and / or customize designs or your choosing. You can purchase my designs from the product page (see the link over there on the right?), ok – here’s the link, to make it easy – or you can request or customize my designs that you have seen on my other sites. Here’s my Cafepress store so you can see more examples of what I can create, and bear in mind that I design websites too.
http://www.cafepress.com/steveshead – Have fun with it and, more to the point, purchase something!
Here’s another plug – all the graphics that I create are available for sale or customization. Email me steve@steve-shead.com with your requirements and contact details and we’ll make it happen.
Subverted Tees:
Here’s three designs I created on the flight back from Hawaii earlier this year. They are all based on a tattoo style – the originals are in Illustrator format, and the PNG’s I use for printing are 6000 x 6000 pixels @ 200 dpi.

Evil Clown:
I’m not sure what was going through my mind when I created these, but they seem to sell well on apparel! I started with black and white outlines for each of these, and worked in layers to add color – then added the extra ’stuff’ to form the final images.

Skulls:
Here is a selection of skull designs that I have created. I love the grunge look with skulls and other abstract design elements mixed in. The eclectic mix of styles in these three make for diversely different styles, but all have their own impact.

Abstract Color:
These are all very colorful images so classifying them isn’t so easy. What I really like is the diversity of them all. A mixture of styles within each image and that’s why I have put them together – for now.
