This design was born when I was in a university lecture a few years back.
I was really bored and sleepy on that lecture so I doodled with my pen and this was the result –the Mushiepower!
This design was born based on psychedelia and of course one of the favourite video games Mario Brothers. Like the real magic mushroom, this design kind of creates the mood of euphoria and lightness. You may actually feel happy and giggle just by looking at it.. LOL. I made the colors look more vibrant too!
Get mushie Power and wear this brightly coloured Design across your chest!

Retro gaming and in particular the Atari, remember the cartridge games! Chunky i know but incredibly cool these days to have this system and play these games. Space invaders, PacMan and Pong are my favourites! This shirt is a spoof for those people who go out and get a little drunk and become a spaced invader!

Aside from the fun and hip culture of the 60’s and the 70’s, another thing that I love about that era was their use of colloquial language and expressions that are fun to use. I’ll give you a couple of samples:
The ‘Crib’ and going to the ‘Gig’
-The “crib” means going home or going to someone’s house, while the “gig” means work or job.
‘Don’t Be Such A ‘spaz’
-’spaz’ means clumsy or accident prone; if someone tells you this, it means “don’t act stupid”
‘May The Force Be With You’
-From the most popular movie during the 70’s, this line is used whenever two individual part ways; this is an expression which is equivalent to goodbye.
‘Phony’
-this is used to describe a deceitful person; it can also be a “Phony Baloney” or just “Baloney” which is an active form, used to instantly dismiss the phony person or utterance.
‘Bootin’
-as in: Are you going Bootin? “I’m going Roller Bootin” or rollerskating
But my most favorite expressions of the 60’s and the 70’s are:
Far Out Man and Groovy which means “so cool” or “Awesome”
In fact, I created two shirt designs from these expressions. Check them out!

The good old TV; the opiate of the masses. The messenger of all things that are right and wrong in this world. Remember how TV’s used to look with the bunny ears, dials and mono speaker system. Vertical and horizontal tuning VHF, UHF. Wow those were the days. Who knew we would end up with TVs that are paper thin can be as big as a car and you can watch realistic scenes in photo realistic colour and in 3D. Crazy! Well a homage to those days gone by. This TV and a good Atari was all you needed to be fully entertained for days!

The hippy in me loves the retro 60′s and 70′s designs and the fashion back then. I also watch “That 70′s Show” due to this passion for that time of revolution, free love and great music and festivals. Peace and the magic bus! Of course this is a catchy phrase from that time and the shirt reflects the psychedelic nature of artwork and culture back then.
Bold, eye-catching, and colorful shirt designs. Bleed-Art presents you its retro collection.
According to the dictionary, hippies are people who have a bright outlook on life and cares about the world instead of trying to ruin it.
They are often member of groups such as GreenPeace and antiwar groups that care about the environment.
They reject the established culture and are a subculture originating in San Francisco in the 1960s who advocated universal love and peace, usually had long hair and used soft drugs, usually listen to acid rock and progressive rock music, reggae music such as that of Bob Marley.
Hippies are famous for the quote “make love not war.”
This artwork describes my real hippy peaceful nature. I created this design showing what a hippy is within and what they think about in a quirky quick kid like illustration.

Having inner peace is attainable, yet difficult to find. The process of achieving the inner peace is slow. You have to find all your selfish obstructions, face them, and deal with them. Only then can you accept that you are just a human being, that you have your strengths and weaknesses.
Being able to stand up when you fall down. Accepting the things way beyond your control, and dealing with it, makes you at peace with yourself. That’s what also makes you at peace with the Supreme Being.
Hippies, peace love and generosity
-this is where this world should be heading where we all live peacefully together happy and free it is completely possible if we truly believe it and we wish that peace and love be within you.

Hello there fellow art junkies!
For the next few days, I will be posting a series of artworks I created that really mean so much to me.
As an artist, it is my responsibility to use the arts in promoting something that I truly believe in. I’ve already made a couple of artworks that express what I personally feel. But as I develop my creativity and skills, the need to grow socially as an artist sets in.
I was asking myself, is this it? Is this the best my artworks can do?
Only then I realized that I should use my creative hands in contributing something back to the society. Hence, I became involved in social causes.
So for this artwork series, I chose to create designs that convey the message of love and peace. With what’s going on in the world, I’d like to make people realize that it is still possible to make this world a peaceful place to live in.
