Each artist gets a royalty paid out per sale of their art. This is to ensure that our artists get an actual salary for their work and not just taken for granted. Our prices reflect the cost and time for printing and layout of each shirt by hand, photoshop and website maintainance, cost of materials, clothing and artist royalties. You as the customer are receiving a very unique piece of art that you can not just hang on a wall but live the art everyday. You become the "living gallery"
