Consilium clothing - experts in screen printed clothing.An artist has created distinctive drawings depicting the life of a coffee plant which will be transferred onto a new range of printed clothing. Renowned graphic artist Robert Mercer was commissioned by Caffe Vita to illustrate a coffee plant's lifecycle from seedling to flower to producing fruit. These drawings have been reproduced on three limited-edition items of screen printed clothing, which are being released in stages. The seedling stage was launched on February 20th, while the flowering phase will be released on April 20th before the fruit completes the set on June 20th. Each shirt is priced at $15 (£10.50) and is available in grey cotton crewneck versions or white v-neck printed shirts made from organic cotton. The 40th annual Natchez Trace Festival was recently launched with a range of printed t-shirts designed by a local artist. Andi Frank's official artwork for the festival was reproduced on items of printed clothing to generate interest in the culture and entertainment event on April 25th.
