Macy’s — Apparel Design (Boy’s) "T-Rex Biker"

This piece was created for the fall line of GREENDOG children’s shirts, sold exclusively at MACY’s.

The assignment was simple enough: create an illustration featuring a dinosaur riding a motorcycle. Somewhere along the way we decided that a dinosaur skeleton riding a chopper would be even cooler. And you know what? We were right! This proved to be one of their most popular t-shirts, selling out almost as soon as they hit the racks.

Thanks to some friends from Raving Toy Maniac, I was able to acquire a few pieces for myself, as my own local Macy’s had sold out before I even realized these were available for purchase.

The best part is, the artwork got repurposed the following year, this time appearing on a Baby Girl tee-shirt. Too cute!
