Joby Cummings is a tattoo artist and illustrator from Los Angeles who has decided to offer his clever 7Sins print as a 7Sins t-shirt. The ribbon-like typography spells out each of the words describing one of the seven deadly sins and wraps them into a cunning rendition of the human skull.

The 7Sins t-shirt is available online for about $20 US. Limited-edition, signed and numbered prints of the design are also available for $100. If skulls aren't your thing, check out the gallery to see the redemptive cross design based on a similar artistic theme.
