your art is amazingly fantastic!!! I was wondering how you do the cloth bleaching and how you get the different colors and stuff I commented on a few of your pictures but it says you haven't been on here since November 2009 and I'm hoping that you will come back and make more amazing art and answer my questions? thank you and hope you get this :)

U R 1 of the best artists i hav ever seen!O.O...

i like your page and your art it's awesome

hey! i just love your bleach art. i wanted to ask you what you use for the bleach? do you use regular paint brushes or something else? i kinda wanna try this bleach thing cuz me sweater got bleached by the sun.

You can household laundry bleach, any kind. I use regular paint brushes, although the synthetic type (I think the bleach corrodes natural hair brushes).

the the art you have done, all of it is amazing well layed out and very detailed..you have skill,very well done,if you have time i would love it if you would check out some of my stuff and let me know what you think...i will be posting many more in the next lil while 8)

hi there! i just came by to say that your art is soooooooooo unique!!! i've never seen cloth bleaching (usually considered a disaster) turned into an art!!! damn, you could make business out of it!
anyway, keep it up, i can't wait to see more from you! ;)

omg your artwork is amazing.
i would do anything to have your talent!

I wouldn't be too sure that you don't already have my talent, so don't go rushing to do anything reckless for it.

no i'm not anywhere near as talented as you

Thankyou.

how are you today hun

I'm well, thankyou.

sweet pics =D

Thankyou.

your welcome

Do you have to dilute the bleach or do anything to the finished art to keep the fabric from deteriorating? I got bleach on a shirt once by accident and it made a hole.

Yeah, I always dilute the bleach. Probably about 5 to 10 parts water to bleach, depending on the picture and how resilient the shirt is. But the best way to keep a shirt from tearing is to keep a fairly dry brush. If you have a lot of bleach in your brush, it will seep through the shirt and make the material quite weak even when dilute. Ideally, the bleach should never get through to the inside of the shirt. You'll know it's right if, when you turn the shirt inside out, there's nothing to see (although that doesn't often happen). You'd probably find that dilution and a dry brush make it generally easier to control the bleach and get more detail as well.

hi dude your art is amazing!! how do you get the bleach colored like that?! srry for all the questions its just youre a really amazing artist!!!!!

The colour is no great secret, although I wish it was. All the yellows and oranges and whites come straight from the bleach. It's just that different fabrics go different colours when bleached, which I think is pretty exciting. For the ones that have red in them as well I simply use a red marker. It comes out a bit in the wash, but I don't mind wearing a little pink. And don't mind asking questions, I can't often get people interested in bleach!

I love your artwork! o.o It kicks @$$!
Keep up the great work! ^_^b

Your art is amazing!

Heeeey uu!

Hello.

hey there ^^
great art! :D how are u?

OMG your are amazing! I can barely draw on paper let alone bleach incredible pics on clothes XD wow u rock

I wouldn't worry about that. In many ways it's easier to bleach on clothes than to draw on paper.

How long does it take for you to bleach the shirts/cloth?

Depends on how detailed and big the picture is I guess. Most of the ones on here probably took on average 6-7 hours. I'm trying to get quicker though.

hey want be friends

Sure.

uuuh thats cool. but how does it work with the colors O_o i admire you for this paintbrush work :D

It goes yellow or maybe orangish from the bleach, depending on the fabric. Give it a go. I colour in the red bits with a marker.

wow you got some amazing stuff in your galery! how do you do this bleach thing?! its awsome! and where do you do it on, dyou have curtains with all these faces on them?
anyway its just totally cool keep it up will you :p

Curtains? I never thought of that actually. Good idea though. Most of these are on shorts and shirts, it's just laundry bleach applied with a paintbrush.

ooo. im sorry i didnt know. but thats really cool! =]

That's ok, and thanks. Enjoy the new pirates movie!

woooow!

Beautiful work! Very convincing. :]
