Wild-eyed


A wild eye in shoes and a derby hat runs with his... tongue out! Crazy enough for you? If not, I should point out the little wings that grow from his sides. All these and more on this cool brown shirt that carries the trippy, hippie, underground comic's style from the 60s and early 70s.

It's one of the many great designs and products you will find on KBill TV, a shop that will take you by surprise!

Hey, dickhead!


A rockin', crazy and hilarious character decorates today's featured skateboard! It's one of the true gems you'll find in Dickcherry's store, created by an artist whose artwork and illustrations help form the current zeitgeist. His work has been used by Pixar, Tinsley Studios and countless rock musicians. Browse his store and you'll know why: his imagination runs amok, powered by his great talent.


Dickcherry's use of color is impressive but I fell in love with this black and white poster. Check him out and I'm sure you too will find something to get excited about!

The yeti and the whale


My surreality sensors are about to explode in front of this mouse pad. Lionel the Lion-faced boy (a two-headed Chewbacca look-alike) stands under a jumping whale. The duo is pictured in front of London's Hammersmith Bridge -plus a red background. Folks... you have to see this.
It's one of Zosia Olenska's artworks and, boy, is she unexpected or what! Her themes include peacock mutants, sea foxes, guts and all sorts of crazy stuff that make eccentric people like me happy! Way to go, Zosia!

Woodoo hoodoo


This cartoon totemic character is the creation of Exitman, a French artist whose style is a powerful mixture of voodoo imagery, graffiti stylization, urban edge and ethnic elements. Mysticism and cool design combined in a monkey "voodoo child".

This one pictures a Black Magic Rabbit, in a colorful explosion in red that many apparel designers would envy. There are amazing t-shirts in this store and I'm sure I'll be coming back for more!

Skating lesson on war

You could not expect a generic, run-of-the-mill skate deck from an unconventional artist like Erla Maria.She's wild and likes to play with strange imagery. War kid is compelling -and I do believe it's yoyoing days are over. This kid's open skull left a strong impression on mine. Not for the squeamish...

Hands-on

Direct? Practical? Actively participating? Or just a physical intimacy fan?
This funny design may point to any of these, but what matters is that it's unusual and bears the mark of the great illustrations found on Digital Jelly.Extrovert, wild, almost psychedelic, these t-shirts are not for the timid -but they are perfect for those who appreciate their playfulness and beauty!

Cheers!

Well, run of the mill retro stuff combined with "attitude" mottoes is not my style, but every rule has it's exceptions.The sheer amount of insult packed in this design is amazing! We are talking about tons of nonchalant hostility, here. Found in Humortees, and useful for these special moments in everyone's life, where we absolutely have to be too brave -or too immature!

Oh, the girls!



Au Bonheur des Dames (The Ladies' Delight) is the title of a novel by the French author Émile Zola. It seems that it also was the name of a wild French rock band, back in the '70s. And by wild I mean screaming, rock 'n' rolling, androgynous, surrealistic, campy and utterly wacko! I didn't know about them but this video is the proof that the past is a strange place to be. The name of the song is Oh, les filles (Oh, the girls). The last forty seconds are truly bombastic.
