    Great shirt. I'm still debating if I'm going to get it, but I have too many bold iconic emblem in the middle of a dark colored shirts currently. But great.

    Pretty cool, I must say. A nice take on an old idea... especially for a math class doodle.

    Wow TeeFury is really on a roll here. I can't beleive so many good shirts for so many days in a row.

    Another excellent design. The use of subtle color shifts is quite striking.

    Great design! Glad someone knows how to use their math class productively. Way to go, fellow Minnesotan.

    One of the oldest optical illusions in the book: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_triangle. Not saying it's a poor design, just noting that the figure is certainly not new.

    "The Penrose triangle, also known as the tribar, is an impossible object. It was first created by the Swedish artist Oscar Reutersvd in 1934. The mathematician Roger Penrose independently devised and popularised it in the 1950s, describing it as "impossibility in its purest form". It is featured prominently in the works of artist M. C. Escher, whose earlier depictions of impossible objects partly inspired it.

    The tribar appears to be a solid object, made of three straight beams of square cross-section which meet pairwise at right angles at the vertices of the triangle they form."

    Great job. It's a simple and classic design but it works.
    I really like your other work, the hourglass and the eye.

    What a coincidence! I just posted about Penrose Triangle t-shirts on my blog a few hours ago.

    As another fellow Minnesotan I congratulate you on your win. I saw this when it was up at Uneetee and thought it was a pretty swell design.

    I like the illusion, but the shirts not for me.

    charlie325said 177 weeks ago

    it's a common design especially in churches. not original, but it looks nice.

    cardinalgoldsteinsaid 177 weeks ago

    Nicely done, but it kinda looks like something a superhero would be wearing. "Look, it's Triangle Man to the rescue!"

    I'm curious - how does being 16 prevent you from painting? :p
  • image

    Isaac_Burtonsaid 177 weeks ago

    I was reffering more to oil painting, which is expensive and requires a good ventilated area.
    Im working on getting the materials i need, and setting up a place in my basement though...

    redrangersaid 177 weeks ago

    Being that I live in saint Paul Mn I would totally get this if its on a swear shirt or hoody. I do like the color combos but right now i am way to cold for a tshirt.

    Really well-done and congrats! Hope to see more :D

    I like your addition of the pattern fill - very nice.

    sidenote regarding your painting projects...you could always just use acrylics and add retarder. It's much less toxic/fume-y, it works in kinda the same manner and will get you used to the feel of painting without the mess/expense of oils. Just a thought.

    "jesus, ive been on this site for the past 2 months and i have not seen a shirt i would wear or even spend 9 bucks to buy."

    Jesus, you make one that you would buy, get it printed, then buy it. Quit whining.

    And what, pray tell, is wrong with that?

    Well done Mr. Burton & well played, TeeFury.

    I really like negative attention and getting my posts deleted.

    icecubesaid 177 weeks ago

    Why do you still come to this site if you haven't found something you would buy in 2 months?
    Chances are, if you haven't found at least one shirt you would want to buy already, you won't in the future.
