Revolution!

Revolution and revolutionaries seem very romantic, especially to young people whose bloodstreams still rage against boring parental lectures and mundane family obligations--you know--the stuff you endured as a child and teenager, all of which would be useless in the commercial world of T-shirt art.

Imagine a T-shirt saying, "Help your Mom--Do the Dishes."
Get that T-shirted guy to a clinic!

But, here's a T-shirt design of a hot-blooded revolutionary that really works:

It's excellent artwork on Che Guervera, a revolutionary in Cuba, circa 1959, very romantic, especially since he's looking up--as if seeing a distant vision from the gods.

Here's a shot of Che in real life, after the revolution:

It  doesn't look like he's consulting the gods, but, after all, he had a lot of government power at that point, and he was very busy.

Here's some artwork by me on another famous revolutionary:

Oops, not a classic--he should be looking up--and I took some liberties by giving him a beret.

 Here's how he really looked after he lost his red hair, although the portrait artist may have flattered him a bit.

It's Thomas Jefferson, one of my favorites, pictured not very long after the American revolution.

Jefferson waged war to establish a nation based on individual liberty, even for individuals who happen to be rich.

Che Guervera waged war to establish a nation based on forcing the rich to share their wealth with the poor, until there was no more.

Both of these firebrands won their wars.

So, choose your revolution--then choose your country:

,

The United States.

Or Cuba.

And, do us --and the world--a favor, whichever you choose:

Go there.
