Send your t-shirt along with some information about yourself to [Dave is Drawing](http://www.daveisdrawing.com/clothing) and he will hand draw on the tee for you.

Dave is not a teenager with a hobby for drawing, he is a professional designer / copywriter / illustrator, with clients including the [New York Times](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/command-brand-hannah-brown), Sundance Channel and Vice.

There is no mention of the cost on his site, but I think this would make a great gift idea for someone. Imagine getting a hand drawn t-shirt with drawing from your favorite movie, computer game, etc: It adds an artistic and exclusive design touch at the same time.

Dave is based in New York City.

High fashion brands such as [Dolce & Gabbana](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stabilo-boss) and YSL have also recently jumped on the [artistic fashion trend](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kenny-scharf-and-axel):
