Zen & Japanese Art T-Shirts
Zen and Japanese art t-shirts at Venice Press are calm, original-art tees: a bonsai, two koi fish designs (Zen Circle and Twin Koi) and a Capybara Zen tee. Each tee is $32, unisex S to 2XL, pressed to order in 1-3 business days, and ships to the US and Canada.
Some shirts are loud. These are the other kind. Koi fish, a bonsai worth staring at, and a capybara that has clearly figured out something the rest of us haven't. Japanese art has a way of making calm look good, and these designs borrow that: clean lines, balanced composition, colors that don't fight for attention.
Original designs from our Venice Beach and Toronto studios on 4.5 oz ring-spun cotton, unisex S to 2XL. They're the shirt you reach for on a slow morning. Free shipping over $75.
In the same mood, cottagecore and slow living.
Koi fish shirts and the other zen designs compared
There are two koi fish t-shirts here. Zen Circle puts two koi inside an ink-style circle on a white tee; Twin Koi shows two koi circling each other in fine lines on a black tee. Neither has any words on it.
