So I sent this guy, Glenn Jones, an email about a week ago asking him to answer some questions for my dear readers (all 12 of you, love you Mom!) and sort of do an interview via email. I had stumbled upon Gennz Tees via a post on reddit and was simply amazed. As quickly as I could I pounded off a list of questions but sadly I never heard back from him. At first I was angry and then I realized that it was truly jealousy leaking out the sides like mayo in a Fish sandwich.

From the info I can glean from cyber stalking him, he got his start designing shirts for Threadless and after gaining what was surely a quick following and reputation he managed to start his own storefront with a company called Despair. from there it appears the rest is history. He seems to have turned his hobby into his career and designs shirts for a living now. Oh, he’s also from New Zealand which may explain some of the brilliance of his sense of humor. Walking around upside down all day apparently makes you very comical.

The fact is this guy is good. So good in fact that I recently found  out that I am still capable of crying. As an artist I often admire other peoples work, but as a t-shirt designer I am far to bitter for basic emotions like adoration. I often feel like I did on my prom night, woefully unprepared and inadequate. I am doing the best I can, but guys like this make you want to crawl into a little arty hole and die. Then I remember I do this part time, that I am doing pretty good all things considered, and I have a lovely redheaded wife that lets me do things to her that are illegal in most states. With that in mind I swing back to the “oh my fucking god this guy is awesome” side of the house.

So no reply huh?  It may be that I am a small blog fish in an otherwise massive fish pie (mmmm…. fish pie), but more than likely this guy is retarded busy.  I know I would be if my brain was full of great ideas like his. So lacking a formal interview of sorts I figured I would just share some his work with you and hopefully he will get back to me with answers to the questions I sent. If not ,well you get to feel as useless as I do after viewing his amazing work.

Without further ado check out his store at http://store.glennz.com and gaze ye inadequate scrapes upon the wonder that is his work.
