About the artist
Olechka
A word from wotto: As a House fan this tee is a must have. That aside I must also comment on how talented Olechka is. This drawing is flawless and so well executed. Fast becoming the T-shirt designer's favourite, let's here it for Olechka.
You have skills, how did you acquire them?
Years of practice: I’ve been drawing since I were a kid.
So tell us how you developed this T-shirt design, what was the starting point?
House is my hero. I drew a portrait of him using graphite pencils, with a little dermatological twist. There was a brief period when I was drawing veins and scar tissue on everything. I scanned the drawing, and added the rest using photoshop. If you watch the show, you know that it’s never lupus!
Which T-shirt do you wear the most?
Currently I can’t get enough of my “Big Willie” shirt; the Willie Nelson tee that I bought from TeeFury.
Name one artist you think is underrated?
I don’t know this guy’s real name, but his art gallery takes my breath away! http://seyk.deviantart.com/
Star Wars or Star Trek?
Don’t know the difference: never watched an episode of either.
Which 5 famous people would you like to have dinner with (dead or alive)?
Salvador Dali, Anatoly Kashpirovsky, Nostradamus, Sigmund Freud, Robin Williams.
What book would you suggest for people to read?
I like interesting/funny books. One of my faves: “Why Do Men Have Nipples? Hundreds of Questions You'd Only Ask a Doctor After Your Third Martini” by Mark Leyner and Billy Goldberg.
Who has been the best client you have designed for?
Nobody yet. Aside from TF, I’ve had 2 designs printed at Uneetee.
What plans do you have for 2009?
Get more sleep, pay off student loans, buy a Cintiq tablet.
What animal would you be re-incarnated as and why?
Black panther. I’d enjoy life as a wild feline.
Who’s portfolio website do you envy?
Michael Zancan. http://www.zancan.fr/

That said, Olechka is mad talented and this tee, I must admit, it pretty awesomesauce.

It's like "name something you like. Oh, House? I'll draw exactly that."
Yesterday's Lebowski was at least done in a totally different style, and the previous Cobain tee had a concept that utilized Kurt without just being about him. But this is... well, it's very well drawn, but it's unofficial merch, to me. And it's especially obvious being the third "famous people on a tee" shirt in a row.

For those who don't like House or this shirt - thanks for stopping by to take a look; I realize that it's impossible to make EVERYONE happy :)
