The SkillsUSA T Shirt Design competition was a project for my graphic design class at Thomas Edison High School of Technology. The assignment was to create a T Shirt design representing your state to present at a school competition. I designed my T Shirt with a bottle cap on it because the crown cork bottle cap was inveted in 1894 by William Paintner in Baltimore. I designed the T shirt with a retro aesthetic to reflect early bottle cap designs. The T shirt won the statewide competition and I went to the national competition in Louisville where I got fourth place.
