Throwing Muses 'Bywater' Goldfish - Meet Freddie Mercury (Flushed Edition)

🌀 Flushed Edition - Intentional Art

This is a deliberately created one-of-a-kind Bywater reverse tie-dye shirt. The "Bywater" rescued misprints have been incredibly popular, and fortunately/unfortunately (depending on your point of view), I am making less misprints now. Since it's such a beautiful shirt as a Reverse Tie-Dye I decided to make some deliberate ones, so I could cover all sizes and give everyone a chance. 

So, this is the Flushed Edition, hand printed, hand tied and bleached by my own fair hands, each one is completely unique - this is the actual shirt you are buying, so please check the photos.

Design: Bywater - the moustached amputee goldfish
T-Shirt: Black, reverse tie-dyed (one of a kind pattern)
Print: Orange ink
Size: Large #1
Edition: Flushed Edition

🐠 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. This drawing really made me laugh when he first appeared on the page, I didn't expect to capture his character so well. Every Hersh purchase directly funds Kristin Hersh studio time.

🎨 Out of the chaos of my Mind

One of the original four T-shirts that I created for Kristin Hersh. This Flushed Edition takes that original design and transforms it into unique wearable art through hand-tied reverse tie-dyeing.

📏 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.
