A beautifully executed shirt with a subject matter based on something I can't support. A shame because I love black shirts since I am a man with a bit or girth.

What exactly can't you support about a shirt designed in memory of a children's book author?

His recent (several years ago before his death) statements were too inflammatory for me. I won't quote him, I already had one post deleted. I was saddened when I read them.

Awwwwwwww!

This is beautiful. But it makes me sad, so I don't think I could ever wear it.

Do you guys think there is a way to get that Goodbye off of the shirt? It's a deal breaker for me.

I agree, it would be better without the lettering

This is a really touching and classy way to remember one of your biggest influences. Thanks for giving people the opportunity to commemorate Maurice Sendak.

Tell us a bit about this design.

Maurice Sendak is one of my biggest influences, and his death took my by surprise and totally ruined my day. I felt compelled to make a little tribute drawing.

Where are you from?

I'm originally from Brisbane Australia, but I'm living in New York City now.

What do you want TeeFury fans to know about you?

I have a book coming out soon, called Theodore Tea.

What do you absolutely not want them to find out?

Lots of things, probably.

Name a few of your favorite things.

Drawing, writing, playing guitar, looking at art, reading, listening to music. Also, I have a soft spot for British black comedy.

What kind of art did you make as a kid?

I liked to write little stories and draw the accompanying pictures. I can't remember, to be honest. I think I drew lots of pictures of Scrooge McDuck.

What is your favorite thing about hand-drawn text?

I think it has much more personality than computer type. Every letterer/typographer's style says something about them. Type has a lot of room for experimentation, too. I like playing with the letterforms and I usually try to make a piece of type interact with itself somehow. I like to make crossbars flow into other letters, or make descenders hook into the next word. There are endless options, and it's always fun to approach a new piece of type and work out what possibilities are available for that particular combination of letters.

Mysterious forest vs. hidden lake: which would win the battle?

I'll say forest. I don't really understand why they're fighting though.

Describe your favorite shirt that you own, and why you like it so much.

I got a Neutral Milk Hotel t-shirt when I saw Jeff Mangum in Baltimore last year. Unfortunately, it got ruined. Somebody must have put a load of bleach in the washing machine before I used it, and now it has orange blotches all over it.

Which is better, gaming, reading, or watching movies? Name your favorite title in your chosen medium.

Reading. I like gaming quite a lot, but I definitely spend much more time reading, particularly if comics count. Craig Thompson's new book Habibi is extremely impressive. How he manages to create such massive tomes is beyond me. I find it hard enough to finish a picture-book! Comic book artists must have incredible dedication.

What inspires your work?

I always find it extremely hard to answer this question. Art that I like, things that I notice, experiences that I have. Everything, really.

Any shout outs?

Not that I can think of!
