Throwing Muses 'Bywater' Fish - Meet Freddie Mercury

🐠 Who's Goldfish in the Toilet?

You've heard the story, heard the song, now you can wear the most excellent goldfish that is Freddie Mercury, in all his ElRat-envisaged glory. Freddie Mercury is heading out to sea on a t-shirt near you... well maybe not to sea, but still, you can celebrate the original Moustached Amputee with an original ElRat Designs shirt.

🎵 I listen to a lot of Hersh music...

and I am often inspired to draw pictures because of them. Sometimes pictures are just pictures, but sometimes they become T-Shirts. I never expected my T-Shirt ideas would be for anyone but me... But here they are, actual Hersh shirts... out of my mind, and into the world...

🎨 Out of the chaos of my Mind

One of the original four T-shirts that I created for Kristin Hersh, Never in my wildest dreams did I believe that The One Hersh would like my art, and want to be associated with it. This drawing really made me laugh when he first appeared on the page, I didn't expect to capture his character so well. He has proven a popular shirt since day one, and I am so happy that he found his way into the ElRat universe. Every Hersh purchase directly funds Kristin Hersh studio time, helping to keep her in the studio where she belongs.

📏 Music is for everyone, and merch should be too (S-6XL Available)

At ElRat Designs, I want as many people as possible to be able to support the things they love. That's why we print every size up to 6XL - because every one deserves to wear their art.

🖤I am a real human

ElRat Designs is an island in an ocean of mass produced fakery and perfection, where all that seems to matter is how much product, that nobody really wants, you can shift. ElRat Designs offers the antidote, I make art that is human. If you are looking for perfection, ElRat Designs is not for you, but if you are looking for something different, for a place where the human element of art still matters, then step into Planet ElRat, and be welcomed with open arms.

You can talk to me personally at any stage, before, during, or after your order. If you have any ideas about Hersh things you'd like to see, please feel free to get in touch. Hersh music is my "special interest" and I am always happy to talk to Hersh people about Hersh things, and I will do what I can to bring you the things you need.🎶🎧🖤

✊Hand pulled by the artist

Every item is hand-pulled by the artist using eco-friendly, water-based ink, and shipped in plastic-free packaging.
