Psychic Powers Social Club

In 2017, I decided to start an inclusive t-shirt company based on my love of horror, comics, 70’s design, goth culture, etc. I had a lot of fun illustrating and coming up with (hopefully) catchy ideas. It was a great way to switch creative gears while working full-time as a Senior Web Designer and the business did fairly well.
In 2020, the pandemic, the George Floyd protests, and a knee injury (with surgery) put me in a state where I didn’t feel very creative, and I certainly wasn’t feeling fun and wacky. I never wanted this project to feel like a chore, so I closed up my t-shirt shop and haven’t reopened it since.
Will I ever reopen the Psychic Powers Social Club? I am a big fan of things coming back from the dead, so maybe! If you’d like to see more of the Psychic Powers Social Club, please visit its page on Instagram. There are some more designs there that I didn’t include here, and plenty more photos of friends and customers!

My Role In This Project:

  • Conceptualize ideas.
  • Create illustrations using Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Wacom Tablet, pencil, paper.
  • Interface with various print companies and make any necessary changes to artwork or files to ensure proper printing.
  • Manage all social media accounts and create graphics and content for Instagram and Facebook for posts and marketing collateral, sometimes including photography and editing.
  • Build and manage Shopify website.
