It would make a good lining for a more subtle effect
A girl once asked if I had fabric so she could make a prom dress from it!
It's so sad Bill Hicks died, I don't have many idols or heroes to look up to but he was one of them, a great inspiration and a total one off
Thanks again
Just readin' through the comments here and yes a fabric print would work well with this.
I used to silk-screen print for years and yes,some of the equipment can be expensive. If this was gonna be printed though I would use water based inks as these soak into the material and practically "dye" it. It would work really well and if I ever get back to printing I'll shout ya up and maybe sort something out
Onto Amsterdamage!!!
Yea top city..I was lucky enough to live 45mins away near Utrecht,another beautiful city;they call Utrecht "Old Amsterdam" 'coz that used to be the place to be.
Amsterdam used to be crawling with junkies and hustlers when I was over there,so the powers that be had a big clean-up,closing many coffeeshops and reducing the trade hours of the headshops
But I have to say it feels a LOT safer there now
The tobacco ban is generally ignored by the bars/coffeeshops,most saying you can uce it for joints but don't leave it lying around on the table for all to see!
The Dutch have a saying that translates as "looking through open fingers" much like turning a blind eye.
Lastly(promise!) the flatness of the country did something to my head I reckon..fields are very rectangular and regular,train lines,power lines all run alongside each other,canals are very grid-like..I think this is why they tolerate soft drugs,to give your head a rest from such regularity!!
Wish I was still there
I'd love to see it made into a dress, that would be awesome
I have looked into fabric printing, but it seems both complex and expensive.
It annoys me that I have to concentrate on more 'commercial' designs, where as clearly there is a market for these more 'risky' designs, I'd like to see it be used in a mainstream way, but because the government are so bloody stupid and have duped most of the nation into thinking weed is somehow more dangerous than alcohol. Therefore the design is much less marketable because people are afraid to be associated with 'drug references' Maybe I just haven't found the right place for my designs yet
Anyway my dress making skills aren't great, but perhaps in the future we could collaborate and make one

Ive never been , but have always wanted to. Amsterdam's good because you can smoke in public, without it having to be seen as something terrible, That BYO cafe you talked about, do you mean Bring your own? I didn't realise it was that relaxed in Canada
I wanted to do my Art degree in Canada, but sadly too expensive. Anyway thanks for the advice and ideas , Much appreciated
