Description: "Mariposa" is Spanish for "butterfly," which is apt for Maria Montessori for many reasons. The butterfly silhouettes in the background grow exponentially and infinitely, which is my symbolic gesture representing how her heartfelt teachings and practices help children grow into their full beautiful potential. As the butterfly silhouettes grow larger, they begin to resemble angel wings, fitting because Maria Montessori is a saintly and angelic figure in many people's minds and hearts. The quote on the shirt says, "The child is both a hope and a promise for mankind." How true this is, especially now, as hope for the success of our future generations is at an all-time high.

Description: Organized in a balanced two-by-two grid separated by subtle dashed lines, each section features a ribbon banner naming the drink alongside descriptive text.

Description: Oh freddled gruntbuggly, Thy micturitions are to me, As plurdled gabbleblotchits, On a lurgid bee, That mordiously hath blurted out, Its earted jurtles, Into a rancid festering confectious organ squealer. [drowned out by moaning and screaming] Now the jurpling slayjid agrocrustles, Are slurping hagrilly up the axlegrurts, And living glupules frart and slipulate, Like jowling meated liverslime, Groop, I implore thee, my foonting turling dromes, And hooptiously drangle me, With crinkly bindlewurdles, Or else I shall rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, See if I don’t. For those wondering: "IP BD" stands for "Iambic Pentameter Be Damned". ;)
