Words from jimiyo:

A high end shirt design at Teefury prices! Snag this at $9 cause you aren't going to be able to snag something like this from anywhere else at this price. If it's too artsy for you, frame it, this is the epitome of awesome!

Tell us about this design:

When I began drawing this, I had just some simple ideas in mind, like "Let's do something quite complex, but there should be also a huge monster or something like that." Then, it became this. While drawing this, I was thinking of a little story to be associated with it. The big monster would become the God of a big city, and he was kind of pissed off by all these creatures praying for him so he attacked the city without another real reason. Because this God's got an IQ of 27. Well. Something like that, I guess.


Tell us about yourself:

I can't tell anything really serious about myself. Last night I've dreamed that I was first some teenager, then a smurf, then Gainsbourg, then a diabolic peasant, then a weasel, then the son of a cosmonaut and a reptilian alien. So I don't clearly know right now. It's just disturbing.

Are there any projects you are working on right now?

I'm currently doing an internship in some graphism agency in Paris. Yippie. But after that, I've got a ton of things to do, tees, book, posters, etc ! I just hope it will be fun.


Can you tell us about the most craziest thing that has happened to you?

I don't really know. It must be the time I was in Switzerland with a friend, and we went on a walk in the mountains at night. It was creepy, with horse's skull and abandonned tents. Then I was bored and I tell my friend that I would be back to the van before him, and so we separated. The next time I saw him he was covered with blood, because he was attacked by the 150-pound dog of some old and strange hippie living in a jeep cemetary, and it finished at the hospital. It was creepy and fun at the same time.

Any shout outs?

I would like to thanks my dogs Vitia and Bouba for being such nice dogs. You are awesome.
