The local artist shirt is perfect for the aspiring artist who wants to be recognized around town as a driving force behind the local creative economy, or for established artists who want the little people to know they haven't forgotten their roots. It is also the perfect way to show your support for that artist, band, or performance art troupe you really like but that is too obscure to have their own shirts. Best of all, when your favorite obscure indie rock band becomes too mainstream you don't have to go out and buying a new shirt for whatever new band your friends have never heard of, you can just keep on wearing your always fashionable local artist shirt!

The local artist shirt is the perfect thing to wear in each of the following situations:

* You are at home, alone, drinking and cursing the world for failing to recognize your genius.
* You are at a local gallery opening. The artwork on display is not yours, but you are hoping that important people will recognize you as an artist and offer you a show of your own and/or to purchase your artwork.
* You are lugging several hundred pounds of music equipment out of your 20 year old van onto the makeshift stage at the local youth center for your band's debut concert.
* You are sitting up against a building in a public square holding a paper coffee cup that has a few coins in it. You shake the cup to make the coins jingle. You have a cardboard sign with finely laid out - but not so perfect that it looks like you tried too hard - text that reads, "will paint for food."
* You are Andy Warhol, but you don't want people to recognize you.
* You have a table or booth at a local arts and crafts fair, and you want to distinguish yourself from the local crafters.
* You can't keep a band together long enough to get a band shirt printed.
