Hello everyone :)

Was recently comissioned by an Apparel Company from Samoa to make 4 illustrations based on 4 different Genesis passages.
Here's one of them!

Also I'm available for comissions, illustration and design!

Sooo... Pink or Yellow?

for sure, the client wanted textures so I had to commit to a layering order and could only use textures when the current ink came after the previous ones. That as well as the 5 ink restriction :)

Thats true, it creates a nice contrast with the green. Red also looks pretty nice, although I didnt post it

Yellow seems tob e the favorite!

Haha thats pretty spot on, Covid, Crypto, NFTs, AI, and now this. I need things to chill a bit 😅

Cristian @cristianpintos.com · 18h

Pink is looking pretty dope 😄

Thanks! Yellow was the first choice and I think it will be his final choice too :)

Thanks! It was limited tints for screenprint so I had to play with textures in a way that I could do it by layer order. But I'm happy with how it turned out!

Hopefully it will pass! Linocuts are especially hard to find a workaround

🙃 What about things you buy nationally but are from outside the U.S? Do you see the price increase in those?

Hoping for it to pass with little to damage. Apart from Etsy shops does it affect you in other ways? Not sure how much things are being impacted by tariffs

Cristian @cristianpintos.com · Sep 2

Yeah, as well as quality control, limited runs, signed and numbered prints, packaging and goodies, etc.

Not sure if I want to do printify but I might take a look at it if is the only option.

Yeah the tariffs are also rough, doesn’t seem like the infrastructure is a proper solution if the end costs turn out to be expensive. Feels like something you gotta wait out to see what happens

Cristian @cristianpintos.com · Sep 2

No worries :) hope things turn out well though for you guys regardless of what happens!

Cristian @cristianpintos.com · Sep 2

Where are you selling from? Also I thought of Print on Demand but I was looking forward to full control of everything, including quality control, unboxing experience, etc.

For sure, my pov feels like such an insignificant part in whatever happens next for the US, but crazy that even I saw myself affected 😅
Maybe this is temporary, we’ll have to wait and see
