T-Shirt Design - Koman Race for the Cure

I was asked my by my boyfriend's mother to design a t-shirt that could be worn by her famliy this year's annual Philadelphia Susan Koman - Race for the Cure. The requested slogan was "Fight for Family". While designing this t-shirt I kept in mind that it would be worn by various members of a family, men and women, and ages ranging between 5 to 60 years old. I sketched a "prinken map" to get a feel for what kind of elements I had to work with. So, after a while, I saw that two letter "f"s could blend into being wings. I also thought, that since this was for a marathon, using the number "4" in the center of the design would be clever (like a varsity jersey). I designed this T-shirt in Illustrator, using a downloaded Hanes textile color swatch, as well as a t-shirt template for printing size and to make a display example. I'm sorry to say that the t-shirt itself will not be finished by the time my portfolio is due for the class. But I am overall very happy with the result.
