Shirts

This is a photo of the late DJ AM wearing a shirt featuring art I drew last November in celebration of Obama's White House victory. As silly as it may sound, seeing someone wear an image I drew is always really affirming. Even when it's a close friend, and even when they're only wearing it because all their other shirts are dirty, there's something magical about it that makes me feel really good. To see someone like DJ AM, who is heralded as a taste maker, wearing one is rewarding in its own right.

The unfortunate part of this image is that I had nothing to do with the creation of the shirt. I've never agreed to any use of that image on any sort of apparel, but they're being sold (in two colors) by a company, that seems fairly reputable otherwise, for $25 a pop. Rather than post the company's info and attempt to slander their name, I'd like to find out their side of the story.

I've been told about a few other instances of misuse, but often feel helpless, resolve that I can't really do anything, and give up. I'm wondering if there's anyone out there who can advise me in the matter. Please feel free to email me if you, or anyone you know, might be able to help.

Thanks to Hugh for the heads up.
