I want to make t-shirts for my research lab, which focuses on the crustacean Daphnia. I'm looking for a simple design in the style of Keith Haring's famous "Radiant Baby," but it would be based on an outline of Daphnia. (I've included some photos, since most people don't know what it is). The design will be used in large-format to make a t-shirt where the Daphnia takes up most of the back or front of the shirt. The main features that should be included are the head, body, tail, large black eye, and the nose-like structure that makes a kind of a "face." The body should be oriented vertically, or possibly slightly tilted forward. The swimming antennae (branched feathery structures that emerge from the "shoulders"), or at least an indication of them should also be a part of the design, although including both of them in detail probably would not be in the spirit of the Radiant Baby inspiration. (There's one antenna on each side that divides into two branches, with 3 long hairs on one branch and 4 on the other)Other than the large eye, internal organs do not need to be indicated, but the long green gut might be interesting.The design should also include the words "RADIANT DAPHNIA" written in a style appropriate to the drawing. The animals are normally transparent and colorless. We will probably print the design on shirts that are a bold blue (e.g., turquoise or royal) to represent the lakes in which they live.Ideally, I would like to be able to use a small version without the text to have it embroidered on the front of baseball caps.
