NEW ORLEANS T-SHIRTS SELL BIG ON ZAZZLE!!!

What a nice surprise to receive an email from Zazzle that 52 T-shirts with the image of my painting "They Can't Keep Us Down" had been purchased from my Zazzle shop. This painting was a Jazz wall hanging I did based on the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina and the spirit of the people of New Orleans.
Jazz put New Orleans on the map musically, and the culture lives on despite the events of Hurricane Katrina and the devestation she created. I wonder if they were purchased by some group to wear to an event? That's the only downside to selling through online shops is that you have no contact with the people that purchase from them.
Oh well, I am just really happy that so many sold and that someone obviously loves that painting. The original wallhanging is still for sale and can be seen at my ETSY store.

Congrat's on the sale! 52 shirts all at once? That's really cool. BTW, love the skates too. Glad you are back!

Go Girl!
I think that if the shirts were made available on Bourbon street they would sell like crazy!
Do you have a picture of one of the T-shirts? What colors they come in etc?
