Maycomb's Finch

My entry for the latest challenge for the A T-shirt Revolution group. The challenge – We’re going to play a little game of chance for this speed tee challenge. Head over to your bookshelf. Select any book that catches your eye and open it. Any page will do. Find a paragrah. This paragraph will be your topic. We want your t-shirt design to visually represent the content of this paragraph, whatever it may be.

My design based on a paragraph from one of my favourite high school books, To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.

The paragraph I chose at random:

We were surprised one morning to see a cartoon in the Montgomery Advertiser above the caption ‘Maycomb’s Finch’. It showed Atticus barefooted and in short pants, chained to a desk: he was diligently writing on a slate while some frivolous-looking girls yelled, ‘Yoo-hoo!’ at him.

Maycomb's Finch belongs to the following groups:

    Thanks Karin, been awhile but I think the pressures of my ‘day job’ have helped a bit of creativity kick in, in some strange way. Hope you’re well and happy.
