This year’s Mountain View Art & Wine Festival shirts were screen printed by hand by our good friends at @sanfranpsycho! 🌁 Seeing Mahyar Rahmatian’s winning artwork get screened color by color onto each shirt was so cool. To everyone who went home with one thank you for supporting the festival!
Here’s some additional info about Mahyar’s winning shirt design:
Happiness and joy are our natural states of being. Yet, our minds often dwell in the past or worry about the future, overshadowing the present. Through my artwork, I gently remind the viewer of the simple, profound joy in the present moment. It is an invitation to pause, reflect, and embrace the joy that is always within reach, no matter what circumstances surround you - the joy of being.
