JULY T-SHIRT

‘the importance of being idle’ brush calligraphy screen printed in black on grey t-shirt.

a short project summary: in 2024 I’m creating one tee design a month, a single print run, giving me chance to experiment with lettering and illustration for clothing. 5% of profits will go to 12 different charities over the year. Each month, I’ll be celebrating a (visually) creative artist from the UK alongside the launch. 

This month’s artist is Dan Forster.

Dan is a hugely respected lettering artist from Leeds, UK, and had worked with some huge names in recent years including Channel 4, Royal Mail, & Design Museum. His work is featured heavily in the @typsim books and he also created an ampersand for @andwalsh studio launch. 

I met Dan many years ago now and we often saw each other at markets around Leeds. It’s been such a joy following his lettering career over the last decade and seeing his curation of his dad’s work (@tonyforster_lettering) in such a mind opening exhibition that inspired me to continue with calligraphy and lettering as a career. Check out Dan’s work here @danforster 💓

5% of profits from sales of this T-shirt go to Bipolar UK.
