Built Not Born features Frankenstein’s Creature with needle and thread in hand, repairing his own body one stitch at a time.
Created from pieces chosen by someone else, the Creature has always raised questions about identity, autonomy, and what makes someone fully themselves. Here, he takes the work into his own hands. The stitches are no longer simply evidence of how he was made—they are part of how he chooses to remake himself.
A design about monsters, transformation, and the possibility that who you become can matter more than how you began.
For Frankenstein readers, gothic horror fans, and anyone who has ever had a hand in making themselves into the person they were meant to be.
Built, not born. Still becoming.
Inspired by Washington Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Crane's Gambit reimagines the tale as a fateful hand of cards. The King of Hearts is split between Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman, forever bound by the night that transformed one into legend and the other into mystery. A subtle break at Ichabod's neck foreshadows his uncertain fate, while the Horseman brandishes his sword from the opposing half of the card. Rendered in an intricate pen-and-ink style, this design blends Gothic folklore with classic playing card iconography, celebrating one of America's most enduring ghost stories and the thin line between superstition and reality.
Few stories capture the conflict within the human soul as powerfully as The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. This striking pen-and-ink design unites the two identities in a single portrait—one half the respectable Dr. Jekyll, the other the savage Mr. Hyde. Behind them, an inkblot evokes a Rorschach test while unmistakably forming the shape of a skull, suggesting that what we see often reveals more about ourselves than the image alone. Inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson's timeless novella, this artwork explores duality, repression, and the masks we wear. Created for readers, thinkers, and lovers of Gothic literature, it is a reminder that our greatest struggles are often the ones hidden within.

“This actually goes really hard. I’ve been a Phantom fan for more years than I like to say out loud and actually creepy cool Phantom merch is rare, apparel even less so. These are wonderful.”
