In 1995, Idavid Graficks had a Gallery Art Show at downtown Joshua Tree Monument Gallery called "We Don't Do T-shirts". 29 years ago, the informational medium was the 'Yellow Pages' and Idavid Graficks had an ad. The number one phrase we said was "We Don't Do T-shirts". For forty years -we didn't do T-shirts. Now - we adapted, not fully, but we now have capabilities that didn't exist even three years ago.
Initially, Idavid Graficks got a single screen/single platen press to simply screen print the 'Rockin for Joshua Tree Metallic Copper on Black T-shirt. To compliment the Copper on Black (Plastisol with Flash Curing) with the 8 color 'Rockin for Joshua Tree' image required the newer technology of Direct To Film (DTF) with Heat Press application. The DTF process widens the range of imagery without having a four/six/eight color carousel T-shirt printer. So, Idavid Graficks has decades of imagery that we're slowly visiting. We can also do DTF on Hats. Idavid Graficks rarely does retail as our experience is in making the 'product' and not doing sales administration. Currently, the retail shops handling Idavid Graficks apparel are Rainbow Stew in Yucca Valley, Desert General in 29 Palms, JT Lake and in Downtown Joshua Tree - Soul Connection. the Desert General Store in 29
