I'd feel silly wearing it, not being much of a Hendrix fan, but the tiger and heart on the right are awesome.

Design is good, but does nothing for me.

Jimi, on the other hand...
Is that what we're going to be getting from Jimi one of these days?!?

Not my thing, but I like the tiger one on the right and I know my boyfriend would love the zombie one.

Ive always liked Jimi. I've been waiting for it. I deeply enjoy seeing the name of the shirt before the design pops up. I like making my own creation in a way. That one second of what does the description mean is cool. Eager but quick anticipation. Could be better facialwise but i love the green and blue combination. Wish it wasnt on black but all in all good job and thanks. I bought one

Love the heart on the side. The skull on the side is also very cool.

As for this shirt, I think it is cool for what it is, I just never really got into Hendrix.

About the preview... I dont know if this was intentional (i think it was) But I like how the teeth of the top face make the eyes for the lower face.

Awesome. I'm very glad that the artist stayed true to Hendrix' upbringing in that he played a right-handed guitar as a youth, strung the opposite way, because a left-handed guitar was so hard to come by.

At Stanford in 1959, Kesey volunteered to take part in a CIA-financed study named Project MKULTRA at the Menlo Park Veterans Hospital. The project studied the effects of psychoactive drugs, particularly LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, cocaine, AMT, and DMT on people. - That's according to Wikipedia.

As for the shirt - As a long time (since the 60's) fan of Jimi Hendrix), I couldn't wear this shirt. It doesn't look anything like him for one thing. Secondly, I'm not big on the colors.

And btw, the hippies back then were not a scourge ;-) They were mostly college students.

So they were a scourge then. :P

As for the shirt I do like the colors but would've like a more accurate look of Jimmy. It looks FatAlbertstylish. Maybe that's what you were going for.

About the artist

Visual Singularities

Art curated by

jimiyo

Words from jimiyo:
It's Jimi Hendrix...Yo. Pale blue and mint green all in your eye! Who didn't go through a Jimi phase? I know I did. Time to relive those blurry formative years from highschool, and go around saying, "Yeah man."

Do you like Hendrix?

I'm a huge Hendrix fan and usually do a tribute piece every year. He was the greatest guitarist ever. It's probably for the best he's dead though. This way he can't ruin his legacy by showing up on American Idol to jam with Clay Aiken. Or he'd just be a mess like Ozzie.

Hendrix fan eh? Are you a hippie or dope smoker? Are hippe and dope smoker synonymous?

You know it's funny, a lot of people think the CIA was indirectly behind the hippie movement. In the paranoia during the Cold War, they experimented on everyday citizens with LSD and other drugs as a form of mind control/truth serum. Ken Kesey, author of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest and original "Merry Prankster", was one of many test subjects back in the day. So you can put the blame for the hippie scourge squarely on Uncle Sam's shoulders.

So what's been going on since your last print? How bout that Christina?

I've been working on a number of projects and just trying to improve with every piece. I have a shirt coming out from Something Sacred Clothing later this summer, so keep an eye out for that. Also, you can pick up some prints and other things at my Etsy store

Christina is still awesome. Possibly even more awesome than before.

Where would you like to see yourself in 5 years with your art career or other?

Celebrating the fifth anniversary of you asking me that question.

You seen any movies lately? Any recommendations?

I thought Doubt was a really good movie. The ending left itself open to interpretation and discussion, which I enjoy. Also, Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman are both fantastic actors.

Name 3 of your top ten movies of all time.

Gigli, Showgirls and Waterworld.

You are in New York. So really, is everyone like those people in Boiler Room?

Oh yeah. In fact every movie/TV show you've ever seen about New York is true. It's filled with cutthroat business men, sassy sex columnists and CHUDS. My brother saw Cloverfield roller blading in Central Park the other day, but he wouldn't stop for an autograph. What a jerk.

Any shout outs?

Thank you to my friends and family for support, and TeeFury and Jimiyo for another print! Also please check out some artist friends:
