okay. normally i keep posting about goods / selling / monetary things to a minimum, like just posting about it once when i drop new stuff and doing one patreon post on sunday. thing is, christmas is coming up so, gonna do a once a year recap of what i got on deck. right now.
perhaps i will call this the “so you have someone really weird in your life and maybe want to get them something atypical and unique owen potential gifts expose and casual morning coffee thread”. hello. how are you. i am of course actually drinking coffee right now. 
ill plug some of the lesser obtained under rated (imo) ones. perhaps you have a friend who is into cryptids and bigfoot stuff. i have this missing 411 inspired / subtle bigfoot graphic. theres also a poster. i like this one because its less obvious, it doesnt scream “bigfoot”.
YEAH. the pics people take of themselves wearing them are always way better than “orchestrated” pics so if you got any laying around send em
this one is pretty classic now. as i said before this is the year that the idea that aliens are demons started to go mainstream. normally i dont got for the rectangle block graphic on the shirt but it has a kind of punk band shirt energy that i like sometimes, fits here imo
peruvian nuns know about this shirt. this one also comes as a print if ur room is barren and devoid of strange energy
ophanim shirt. i like this one because its also a little atypical. one time when i was wearing this a guy asked me if id seen neon genesis evangelion and said i would like it if i liked this shirt and told me all about it. i have no idea why. good times.
“im part of an invisible college style collective of esotericists and intellectual dissidents that primarily congregate online and one of our craftsmen produced this. theres bigfoot [poke your chest]”
“the father” shirt. took the basic elements of this graphic from a medieval book of hours. i can look up exactly which one if anyone wants to know. if you have a friend into medieval stuff this would be a good one.
okay enough black shirts (most of them come on other colors also). this one has a little bit of a different vibe, i like that it’s kind of subtle (not sure people would at a glance notice its christian, maybe they would), while also being overt (cross, the other symbols)
heres the description of that image from my site if youre interested. the full image with the background comes as a print as well.
gonna try and stay on topic for gifts style. if u have a friend into medieval stuff or european manifestations of christianity or art history or things like that, one of the most popular shirts is this graphic i made of the front of notre dame. comes in aesthetic gradient or blue
if your friend is more into lesser known archeological stuff or pre christian history, i also made this graphic (in two colors) from a jewelry design found at sutton hoo, basically the best find ever for old anglo stuff from the 6th / 7th centuries
i think that one makes a pretty cool gift because most people dont know about sutton hoo unless theyre into that kind of thing but, if they do i think theyd really appreciate it, very niche
my mechanic just came by my house to fix my car and ended up hanging for a minute. pretty cool. alright let us resume the perusal ...
ill mix in some of the prints here too. i like this one a lot, its an image i made of all the symbols and themes in jesus' pre ministry life in the bible. so basically i went through and took all the "symbols" or visual themes i could find and illustrated them.
if you have any conspiracy theory friends they might enjoy these two: antarctica mandala and “the conspiracy”. “the conspiracy” one even has a tiny twin towers on it. come on that rules. who has that level going on. just us
heres the graphic for the antarctica mandala one. also, all the color combos look good but the conspiracy shirt on the cobalt blue looks really good. the cobalt blue shirt is really bright + nice and goes with the blue graphics. i only have an IRL pic of another graphic on it tho
okay i dont want to end up posting literally everything from my shop so just gonna hit a few more imo under rated ones
the graphic on this mysterious grace shirt came out really tight. in person the details are nice and crisp so, wanted to post that (also looks rad as a print):

okay last two ill post photos of. the stock image i posted of this graphic on the red doesnt really show how awesome the red on red looks imo. the white long sleeve is also really chill and is a surprise hit. i wear it all the time.
its surprisingly difficult taking good pictures of shirts so just in case just saying they all look rad irl. of course i would say that but, i have all these because i get tests of them to make sure theyre centered, the right colors, etc... just saying
some ones that are also relevant to gift giving.
- st. augustine, might be the most popular shirt. everyone loves st augustine. this one also comes as a print and theres another print i have in the same style that is scenes from his book 'confessions'

templar: crusades, very popular time period
kingfisher: medieval style (kind of), tangentially related to fishing which some guys really like (that one comes on a few colors not pictured)

the kingfisher one also comes in what i call "night style". this is like, esoteric fishing shirt. i made this in the first place because the kingfisher can dive deep into water, which is symbolic of the subconscious and unseen aspects of reality, and bring things back from there.
YEAH third eye nationalism gun club shirt and hoodie is also very popular. didnt post that one but i have the hoodie and its really comfy.
like i said real life pics always look way better. these are various people who sent me these and said its cool if i post them:
alright thus ends the once a year potential gifts for weird friends and family you may have photo extravaganza showcase. was it everything you dreamed it would be? hopefully it was. theres more stuff in my shop also, its all at:
owen-cyclops.myshopify.com
owen-cyclops.myshopify.com
whenever i post about [money things] just also like to make the qualifier that i really appreciate anyone picking stuff up and mostly do this because my goal is to make more cool visual stuff that can combat all the toxic imagery we are all inundated with on a day to day basis.
most of yall have heard me say this before but basically my goal is to run a little art operation out here that can broadcast and propagate our vibe and the ideas of this strange sphere we inhabit in a new or unique way. so far its going really well and the shop is a part of that
this year the output level i was at was definitely the highest ever. was the first full year since i moved out of urbanity and, having money come in from shirts + prints + patreon just really is like straight fuel i can put right into this machine im slowly getting off the ground
got a lot of BIG PLANS for next year so, even if you just like my posts or something i appreciate people being into my stuff in any capacity and frankly letting me post stuff like this and just hang around. how much can we escalate the vibe??? we will see.. thats it.. THREAD OVER
