TCI EXPO T-Shirt Design Contest

Pittsburgh-based artist, Casey Jones is deeply inspired by nature. In recent years she has become more and more intrigued by her husband’s tree care trade and has been making digital art focused on arboriculture. With a background in pencil, watercolors, and acrylic, digital art has been a very new endeavor. She has worked hard to bring to life the beauty and intimacy in the relationship between humans and nature. In addition to being an artist, she is a wife, mother, and dog-trainer and continues to live the grand adventure of life.

Colm is a tree climber from Ireland. And has been in the industry for 12 years. Arbfiction is a company that he has recently set up that works on merchandise sales and various designs. The aim of the company is to make people laugh while promoting the world of arboriculture. The design Colm entered is the design of a son looking up to or idolizing his father because in his words “in our child’s eyes we are action heroes”.

Bryan is a contract climber and cartoonist. The shirt design he came up with is a version of the “stick people”, that one would draw to represent a person when making a quick diagram.
