Last weekend, San Francisco Chronicle reported Website lets customers do the designing: "The website is www.zazzle.com and For just over five years, San Francisco's Zazzle.com has operated a website that lets users customize and design their own T-shirts, postage stamps and mugs. It has expanded its product line to include hats, cards, binders, shoes and even iPhone cases..." It seems a good place for artists to utilize their talents and hopefully to generate complementary or main income.
I was quite intrigued, especially because I just had a discussion on fantastic fabric designs made by a linguist friend who utilized her research on medieval life. A typical of her design was based on a drawing by a young boy in 13th century Russia.
I decided to give it a try by using my paintings, drawings, and particularly my photographs to design some cases for iPhone, iPad, T-shirts, mugs, and shoes, etc. I can even upload large images and produce fine quality prints for my self or for my patrons.
