3X Tees & more

I have been having fun with a new technique... Discharging or Reversing.  I start with a Black tee, tie it up and remove color in a pattern and then I add color back in.  Here is another set of Midnight Rainbows in various sizes ...  3X Spiral Scrunch for this one.

I use Procion dyes which are professional strength commercial dyes, the colors stay bright for years.  I work with Gildan Ultra tees,  they are 6.1 oz, 100% pre-shrunk cotton.  

Great dyes, quality tees, and attention to detail, combined with my ability to embrace the random nature of liquid color, equals an awesome new shirt for you to wear and show off.  Each tee is handmade, so every tee shirt is unique.... I may be able to do one similar, but never exact.

I started twisting tees and splashing dye in August 2000 and quickly realized the unlimited potential of the tie-dye medium. I have experimented with many techniques of tie-dye as I explored its history.

I love experimenting with new processes .... the latest one I have been working with is Discharging.  For this, I start with a Black or other color tee, fold and tie it up and then I remove color from the tee leaving a patten of light tan and black.  From here you can rinse well or wash and then add color back in.  I tied this one back up and dyed it to accent the Rose.

I love to experiment with Tie-Dye ...  Here is an Experiment I did the other day, I randomly scrunched and tied the tee up, then added my dyes and then I went to add the Soda Ash (activates the dyes so they can bond with the cotton fibers) and I got part of the tee coated really good and a little splash on the rest of it... I filled the bottle back up, but got distracted before I added more Soda Ash to the rest of the tee ...  this caused me to have a bright spot with the rest of the tee in muted tones due to the lack of enough soda ash ... I think it looks kinda cool as I love Contrast ... so, another One of a Kind tee is ready for you to wear. ✌🏻💚😎 

But, just so you know, they dyes that are present are fully set, just muted.

I love this art and sometimes I just sit down at my table, then twist, fold & tie the tee  randomly ... it like the tee tells me how it wants to be folded ... I call these 'Intentionally Random' Designs as a bit of randomness goes into each fold of the tee and then it is randomly Ice Dyed...  Great One-of-a Kind tee!!
