There are people who wake up refreshed, drink water, and feel optimistic. I am not speaking to those people today. I am speaking to the ones who wake up already exhausted, already behind, already bracing for the next email that reads like a small threat. If that is you, hi. Welcome. Put on this shirt and let it do what your brain refuses to do: give you a directive that is simple enough to follow when everything else feels like static.

The back says “Make Art Every Day.” Not because you are trying to become a content machine. Not because you owe the internet anything. Because you are a human being with a nervous system and the world is loud, and sometimes the only way to stay inside your own body is to put your hands to work. Make something. Anything. A messy drawing. A dumb little collage. A playlist that sounds like your last two brain cells holding hands. A photo of the light on the wall at 4:17 PM. A sentence you do not delete. A sticker. A zine. A half-finished idea that becomes a lifeline later.

And yeah, it’s EGOPROOF, so it is also a little confrontational. The small left chest print is the quiet nod. The big back print is the part that does not let you disappear. It is for the artists who feel like they are failing because they are not “productive” in the approved way. It is for the people who are trying to stay steady through all the bullshit, who keep showing up even when their brain is throwing tomatoes at them.

Wear it to the studio. Wear it to the grocery store. Wear it while you clean your desk like it is a sacred ritual. Wear it when you are blocked and mad and you still sit down anyway. This is not motivation. It is self-preservation with better typography. Make art every day. Not for perfection. For proof of life.
