Hokusai’s Great Wave in a teacup… again

Last week I posted this tee when it was on TeeFury and as usual I was bemoaning the way that you guys may have visited HYA several hours or days after it ceased to be available at the tee a day site. Fortunately, artist Ross Robinson has made the design available on POD site MySoti, yes, it’s not the bargain $9 it was last week, but at least you’ll be able to actually buy it rather than going “… wish I’d got that on TeeFury last week.”

Hokusai’s great wave… in a teacup

This tee is at TeeFury, so there is a chance that by the time you read this unfortunately it won’t be available, which is the only problem I have with “tee a day” sites and why I don’t mentioned them much on HYA. If you’re after daily updates on those kind of sites, popculturetees and teemagnet will treat you well.

Regular readers will know that I have quite a large soft spot for Hokusai inspired designs, and I think that this is one of the finer examples that I’ve seen. At $11/$14 shipped (US/International) you can’t really go wrong.

Even though the design isn’t entirely related to it (thought there is more than a passing resemblance), I instantly liked this design because of the use of Hokusai as the background to the promo pics. That said, it is a good design in it’s own right, I really like that way that the wave almost looks like a hand preparing to grab the boat and drag down to the murky depths, and the print is a nice big size too, which is always good to see.

Namicon by Proteus Apparel

Well, I say that this design is by Proteus Apparel in the title, but I think it would be a lot more fair to say that it was by Hokusai (incidentally, HYA is the #1 result on Google for misspelling that name as Hokkusai), still, I do love to see that Great Wave at every [...]
