5 out of 5 starsLove it! This is a present for my husband, can't wait to give it to him. Arrived in good time. I love the fact of seeing a bacteriophage on a shirt, the print is well made and the seller was very kind and clear in communication. Thank you :)

5 out of 5 starsReally nice item and nice seller to deal with. Unfortunate that Etsy has such high shipping prices from the US, otherwise would happily buy more.

5 out of 5 starsThe quality of the shirt and print is perfect, looks even better in person. Shipped on time, I would definitely recommend. I am going to be keeping a lookout for any new cell biology/ microbiology shirt designs by SomniaCity.

5 out of 5 starsWas surprised to see the ink was purple, and the background color was a little more vibrant and light than the preview, but hoping the gift recipient still likes it. Soft, right size. Became a 4-star review because the ink colors are pretty different from the image.
Edit: Raised back to 5 stars because the shop owner understood the issue and gave a partial recompensation. :) -

5 out of 5 starsI bought Robot Octopus version at Greater Philadelphia Comic-Con. Instant favorite. Came back to Etsy and bought 3 more. Love these shirts! I got 5 compliments on this one the first time I wore it.

Most of Natalie's designs were done using Scratch art, a medium where black is scratched off to reveal the white under.
A Small but Bountiful Work Space
Natalie McKean began to sell her work on her first art tour in 2011. After the love and success she experienced in her travels, she decided to continue to do what made her happy and start selling online as well as festivals and fairs.
She remained a traveling artist for several years. Wherever her wheels took her was where she made each and every piece she sold. As long as her van was stocked with supplies she was happy to make art.
In 2012 she met her future partner, Donald Arrodondo, a San Francisco art student and together they began to collaborate on ideas and designs. Only a year later they found the perfect spot in northern California to open their own art studio, which also happened to be Natalie's home town.
To this day we continue to create and work together and now under our new business name, Somnia City, (Somnia: A condition of or like sleep/dream state - City [informal]: A place or situation characterized by a specified attribute) a place where our designs meet and blend.
We care immensely for our community and take care to give back locally, so almost all of our supplies and products come from local or Independent businesses. We are also environmentally conscious, using only non-toxic, water-based ink to hand screen-prints every one of our t-shirts in our studio.
Creating art is not only our passion but our means of life and therefore we are incredibly grateful for all who support our work.

I've been making "art" my whole life but I have now dedicated myself mentally, physically, and spiritually to it. Currently, my ONLY means are through this shop and I am extremely grateful for the support I get.

I'm a designer and I screen print every one of our t-shirts myself in our northern California studio.
