Personal Fashion And Being A Vegan

First and foremost I am a vegan for myself and the animals, and it is part of my personal journey to finding peace. My vegan path is not about convincing others to go vegan, although I highly recommend it, but by pursuing things that make me happy. These days I enjoy riding my bike, going on hikes when I can, reading lots of  books, cooking vegan meals, and working on art projects.

My art has inspired many the designs on the shirts I wear, and through fashion I have learned you can have your own sense of personal style and be a vegan. Sometimes I draw pictures directly on shirts with fabric markers, and other times I use prints of my artwork and photography to create shirts over on Zazzle.

I was never interested in wearing leather even back when I was semi-vegetarian, and now as a vegan I do not agree with it. Rather, I prefer to wear clothing that is not derived from animal products, and wear items that express my sense of style. These ideas continue to inspire the artwork on my Zazzle shop, and I have many shirts available for there if you like what you see.

Last year I created a Valentine sunset heart shirt with a fabric marker design.

I drew the heart design on the shirt with fabric markers.

There is a silhouette of a tree with a sunset as the backdrop. This heart shirt was inspired by every day sunsets up in the San Bernardino Mountains.

Wearing The Palm Tree Shirt At The Santa Fe Depot

The train no longer comes to this Santa Fe Depot, but it is a scenic place to walk around and take picture. Today I decided why not wear the palm tree shirt while gazing at the palm trees that adorn this defunct depot. However, it is still a beautiful building, and I hope one day the train is running her again.

The palm tree shirt was fun to wear with the palm trees around the defunct Santa Fe Depot.

The palm tree shirt has a reprint of a cross stitched design that I created on Aida cloth. If you like this shirt, it is available on Zazzle.
