Hand-Drawn Vintage Map Illustration on a Mid-Weight Organic Cotton Short Sleeve Shirt

"I illustrated this compass rose with inspiration from vintage maps. I kept a loose sketch design so you can see the imperfect line-work which gives it character you don't see in most graphics." — Jordan Kempain, Artist & Founder of Kempain Family Outfitters

Featuring original artwork inspired by vintage cartography, this hand-drawn compass rose captures the authentic spirit of early New England exploration. The loose, imperfect sketch design preserves the raw character of the original pencil lines, delivering a distinct aesthetic that stands apart from mass-produced graphics. 

This made-to-order graphic T-Shirt features hand-drawn artwork by Jordan Kempain. The Kempain Original illustration is printed on a mid-weight, 5.3 oz. short sleeve shirt made from 100% organic cotton. By choosing 100% cotton, this shirt minimizes microplastic shedding into the air we breathe and the water during each wash.
