Keeper of the Threshold | Gothic Surreal Art Unisex T-Shirt by Michael Lawrence

Fine art you can wear: Keeper of the Threshold, from the painting Dark Man, from the Dark Series by surrealist painter Michael Lawrence.

Dark Man is a guardian. A figure shrouded in mystery fixes you with an intense gaze through a veil of golden foliage, his hands turning the leaves as if they were a gate. He is the keeper of the threshold, welcoming spirits into the dark place beyond. The luminous gold textures glow against deep black. The man in the painting was a friend of the artist who died at the age of 40, and the painting carries that memory.

The shirt:

• 100% ring-spun cotton, soft and comfortable (see color options for blends in sport grey and heather colors)
• Double-stitched neckline and sleeves for durability, with shoulder-to-shoulder taping
• Quarter-turned to avoid a crease down the center
• Printed on demand just for you, which reduces overproduction

The design sets the painting inside an ornate gothic frame of thorned scrollwork, with the title arched across the top in blackletter.

Wear it to a gallery, a show or anywhere you'd like a conversation to start. You'll be supporting independent art.
