I have a favorite grey tee shirt from Bass & Co that is as old as my marriage.
It is on its last legs, and I am grieving. I cannot find another one like it ANYWHERE and it is so sad because I love grey heathered cotton long-sleeve tees.
I created the sketch above in Robert Oster’s Australian Opal Grey ink, the perfect match for the actual color. The two images are due to flash and no flash.
Mitchell loved it and told me not to do any more to it…
Okay, but there is more, so I did another.
I tease him and tell him I always do as he says, but this time it is true.
What was missing was the paint on the shirt.
There, see, now it is a likeness of my actual tee.

I grieve for you. They don’t make T-shirts like they used to.
