Now I know I’ve titled this post with something of a contradiction, perhaps even an impossibility for many, but the fact is I’ve found a place that embraces the darkness of life with a smile, dances on the grave of mundanity, and juggles with the hearts and minds of the dispossessed with glee. What’s more this carnival of jolly gloom has been transported from the weird yet wonderful mind of Stefanus Liemena from reams of doodles to a fine collection of t-shirts that should cheer up the most mournful of souls.
The Doodles Online is a fashion store with a difference, the name should be a big clue as to exactly what TDO is all about, doodling and doodles. Stefanus (or Steve if you’re feeling lazy) has doodled all his life, this isn’t a brief affair with the scatterlogical arts, this is a committed marriage between his strangely beguiling subconscious and his talent for hand-eye co-ordination. The fact is Steve could be the nearest the t-shirt industry has to a ouija board, he plucked the character ‘Doodles’ from one of a plethora of scribblings he’s produced over the years. Steve wants his doodles to represent the fun and childlike side of each of us, whilst the darker character to his designs signify something of the problems in our society today. But I’m sure he’d just say he’d having fun – perhaps the best description for the central character Doodles I can offer, is a hybrid mutation between Edward Scissorhands and Dennis The Menace.
I am as usual reading too much into it all I know, but it’s rather a niche market, the happy emo, the smiling goth, but to be honest it’s a rather refreshing approach to t-shirt art, following the adventures of a single character, cheerfully strolling around the outer perimeter of misery.
