AJ Hawaiian Shirt Challenge

July 20, 2015 Update:
Well, the auction ended and the shirt is now on its way to the new owner. Congratulations Ron and I hope you enjoy it for many years.


July 8, 2015 Update:
Woo Hoo - I listed the shirt on EBay too and it's got a bid. So, most likely, the shirt will be sold by next week. Congratulations to the bidder. Here's the listing on Ebay: Motorcycle Hawaiian Shirt on EBay

I'm leaving the description on Etsy in case anyone wants one similar.
Thanks everyone!

June 27, 2015 Update:

Since the shirt does not fit me, I'm offering it for sale on Etsy here: Motorcycle Hawaiian Shirt
Hope it finds a new owner to make happy.

The latest Art Jam Challenge was to create a Hawaiian shirt design, either in 2D, 3D, or wearable. For my entry, I chose to deconstruct a Harley Davidson Sportster engine and use the exploded diagrams as patterns on my shirt. I hand drew each diagram onto the shirt from my Sportster mechanics manual.

I like how it turned out and wished I used a medium sized shirt instead of large... I'm too small to fit the shirt.

"Hay Rolls" giclee prints, now available

Due to requests, I have made available for purchase archival quality, giclee prints of the "Hay Rolls" painting. The prints are 36 inch wide by 16 inch high with a 2-inch border all around and printed on Canson Etching Rag. The prints are available on Etsy at my Bill Jeng Studio shop: Hay Rolls giclee print on Etsy

For framing, I suggest a dark wood frame with a simple white mat border. The framed print is a striking focal point above a sofa or mantel. Here is a sample:
