"Bloody Mary" is crafted in the stylistic realm of a graphic noir novel. It is a gripping visual experience that uses a narrow color palette of red, white, black, and gray to establish a distinct and powerful narrative.
A stark white background serves as the blank canvas against which the story is laid bare, interrupted only by splotches of black that add a layer of obscurity and unease. The unobtrusive colors pave the way for the central figure, a woman both captivating and unsettling, enveloped in an ambiguous narrative of violence and mystery.
She is covered in chilling splashes of blood, which don't seem to be her own, immediately commanding the viewer's attention. The harsh red, only echoed by her seductively painted lips, breathes life into the otherwise monochrome scene. This crimson hue imbues the painting with an unnerving atmosphere, as it contrasts sharply against her black and white attire. The ambiguity of her clothing style adds a further layer of mystery to her character.
A hat, heavily soaked in blood, sits ominously atop her head. It obscures part of her face, cloaking her expression and making her emotions and intentions inscrutable to the viewer. This invites questions rather than answers - is she a victim, a bystander, or the perpetrator?
Her right hand is subtly raised, ghosting over where a collar might be, suggesting an air of sophistication or a hidden identity beneath the apparent brutality. Her left hand disappears off the canvas, leaving us to speculate what it might be holding - perhaps a weapon, a clue, or some form of salvation?
"Bloody Mary" is a chilling study in noir aesthetics and compelling storytelling, weaving together the captivating ambiguity of its central figure and alluding to the frightening tales of women known by the moniker "Bloody Mary". This blend creates a riveting tableau that confronts viewers with the chilling blend of allure, mystery, and terror associated with this timeless name, and with questions of identity, morality, and the hidden stories lurking beneath the surface.

All-Over Print (AOP) is a printing method that uses dye-sublimation to print a design onto polyester. During the dye sublimation process the dye is absorbed into the fabric. Since, it is not printed on the surface, like most t-shirts, it provides for a fantastic soft-to-the-touch feel and superior breathability.
AOP is a more time consuming method than screen printing or direct-to-garment (DTG) printing, so the prices are higher and the production times are longer, but the results are most definitely worth it.
Advantages of AOP:
The design won't peel off, unlike typical screen printing.
The design is part of the fabric of the item, so it will last as long as the item does.
The intensity of color is often unmatched.
Giclée (pronounced zhee-CLAY or often gee-CLAY) is a printing process that creates a museum quality, archival print. Special acid-free, paper is printed with fade resistant ink using a state-of-the-art, large format inkjet printer.
Gallery wrap is a style of displaying a canvas that doesn't show any visible staples or nails holding the fabric to the wooden stretcher bars. This style of canvas is intended to be hung unframed.
Mirrored edges (mirror wrap) is used to show the whole image on the main surface, rather than printing the edges of the image on the sides (image wrap) of the canvas frame. It is usually used when there is necessary detail on the edges of the image. Image wrap is used when the focal point of the image is in the center.
