Tie-dye art process start to finishfrom @dyesngoodvibes

[01]

Overview

The creator explains his fascination with ancient civilizations and the Anunnaki story, which inspired him to create a themed tie-dye t-shirt. He then documents the entire 16-hour, two-step process, showing how he draws the design, uses a scrunch technique for the initial dye, washes it out, and then applies a second layer of dye using honeycomb and filler techniques for the sky. Finally, he reveals the finished t-shirt, titled 'Visitor,' and demonstrates its UV-reactive accents under a blacklight.

Transcript

Ever since I was a kid, I've been super fascinated with ancient megaliths and ancient civilizations. And one of my favorite stories is Zecharia Sitchin's translations of the ancient Sumerian tablets talking about the Anunnaki. Now I don't wholeheartedly believe in it, but from a creative perspective, it's a really cool story. And if it was true, it would explain a lot, and that'd be really cool. And with all that being said, I've always wanted to make an Anunnaki inspired piece. This one took me about sixteen hours of hands on tying and dyeing. It was a two step piece, meaning it was tied and dyed in two separate occasions. First step was a scrunched image design. After all, that was washed out, went back in, tied in a honeycomb underneath the UFO, did some Kenny style filler, did an experiment with, like, a really cool blue gradient for the sky, and here it is. I'm calling this piece Visitor. I also threw in some UV reactive accents on the UFO. Pretty stoked on it. Let me know what you think.
