Painting -- Avoiding My Problems
Why confront your problems when you can cover a canvas in them and tell everyone it’s an exploration of the human condition?
Our Painting -- Avoiding My Problems tee features a distressed cream artist’s palette, two paintbrushes, and bold orange-and-gold accents. It’s the perfect look for someone whose life is falling apart but whose color mixing has never been stronger.
Perfect for artists, weekend painters, and anyone who’s ever looked at an urgent email and decided the sky needed another layer of blue. You’re aware of your responsibilities. You’ve simply chosen to express that awareness through a medium that takes several hours to dry.
Wear it to art classes, studio sessions, or supply-store trips where you buy twelve new colors to avoid dealing with one red flag. It also makes an excellent gift for that friend who says painting helps them process things, despite having six unfinished landscapes and the same unresolved issue since March.
“Shouldn’t you be dealing with that?” I am. See that ominous blob in the corner? That’s my inbox.
The brushes are clean. The palette is ready. Your problems have gathered outside the studio, but unfortunately, you’re not accepting commissions from them at this time. If they want your attention, they can sit quietly in a bowl with the other still-life subjects.
Add to cart. You can’t paint your problems away, but you can give them a lovely background while they wait.

The "You Actually Look Good" Fabric
We might be outwardly cynical, but we secretly care about your comfort. These classic unisex jersey short sleeve tees fit like a well-loved favorite. Crafted from 100% Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton (specifically the Bella Canvas 3001), the fabric is incredibly lightweight at 4.2 oz/yd² (142 g/m²), remarkably breathable, and easy to layer. It’s perfect for both active wear and aggressively participating in leisure wear. If you want to get technical about our fabric blends:
Ash and Heather Prism colors: 99% cotton, 1% polyester.
Athletic Heather and Black Heather: 90% cotton, 10% polyester.
Heather and Solid Blend colors: 52% cotton, 48% polyester.
Engineered to Survive Your Apathy
We built these to last through all your introverted hobbies and anti-hustle weekends.
Shape Retention: The ribbed knit collar features a seam to make it highly elastic and help it retain its shape.
Structural Support: Dual side seams are located along the sides to hold the garment's shape longer.
Anti-Stretch Tech: Twill shoulder tape covers the shoulder seams to stabilize the back of the garment and prevent stretching.
Flattering Cut: The shoulders are tapered for a better fit over time.
Versatile Style: The retail fit and neat crew neckline make it perfect for casual settings, semi-formal obligations, or effortless accessorizing.
Prints that Do the Talking
Our soft cotton and exceptional print quality ensure you'll fall in love with these shirts over and over again. To make sure your sarcasm is highly legible, sleeve prints and neck labels are produced using Direct-to-Film (DTF) printing technology. This applies to products fulfilled by print providers like OPT OnDemand and Shirt Monkey, ensuring crisp, detailed designs. Alternatively, providers like TextilDruck and Stoked on Printing use Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing for their labels to deliver vibrant colors and a smooth finish.
Surprisingly Ethical
We might be annoyed by most people, but we don't hate the planet or the workers making our clothes.
