Update #3: Bee-shirt design
Posted on October 6, 2009
Here is the basic bee vegan t-shirt design (with exact colors depending on the t-shirt). I like this shirt because it has three possible interpretations:
1. It's labeling the bee as vegan (bees eat only pollen and nectar from flowers).
2. It's labeling the wearer as vegan.
3. The best one: it's a visual pun that reads "be vegan."
Regardless of how it's interpreted, it's sure to spark conversation about veganism's relationship to bees and insects in general. I like creating the opportunity to challenge people's beliefs about insects rather than acceding to negative views about them.
