Hi y'all, i'm zac.
I buy framed artwork from thrift stores and paint things on 'em that I like; sneaking elements in to fit the scene.
This space is mostly dedicated to showcase my artwork. I've sold a couple originals and continue to make high-quality prints available, by request.
The Artwork
Duck Hunt was the first project, April-ish of '20 during the COVID lock-down era. The mallard scene spent a year framed on my wall when the idea came while passing it one day.
After that, I started specifically seeking out artwork with scenes that had potential. Occasionally the idea came immediately, otherwise it sparked after spending some time on my wall.
The Designs
I've never liked LaCriox. And I've called it LaCrotch for as long as I remember.
Matt helped me put together the design together because I didn't have the necessary Photoshop chops for the image in my head. Thanks again, Matt. Soon I discovered a world of editing graphics as inefficiently as possible by using PowerPoint. The crudeness of it was something I adored and insisted sticking with; a hill I'd gladly die on before learning Photoshop.
The Shirts
I made the first LaCrotch shirt for myself. 1/1. Ordering a custom shirt was unfamiliar and I had no idea it was that easy to make a shirt exactly how I wanted. The quality of my shirts will remain because I'd only sell what I'd wear myself.
Few times in the office and a couple social outings wearing it, sold a couple hundred by request and word-of-mouth. They were well received so I decided to continue making limited runs.
