Rhode Island's official state shell is the quahog! A quahog is a hard shelled, bivalve mollusk and the clams are further distinguished by size; Little Necks are the smallest (about 1" thick, you can slurp those right down), Cherrystones, and Chowders are the largest. The clams thrive in the estuaries and mud flats along coastal Rhode Island and Narragansett Bay. In summer we tread them out of the sand with our toes, though digging with hand rakes is popular too.
Our short sleeved, I DIG QUAHOGS t-shirts are hand printed with white ink on blue jean colored, 100% cotton, pigment dyed, Comfort Color t-shirts. The t-shirts are pre-shrunk and run true to size. The print measures approximately 8x4.5 inches and is on the front. Please note that with pigment dyed t-shirts, blemishes may occur due to the dying process.
* Please note, we have limited quantities of t-shirts at this time! We're checking our vendors daily; however, because of Covid-related supply chain delays, there are very few, if any, Comfort Color t-shirts available.

This is an open edition serigraph entitled Moby Dick, that features a sperm whale and a quote from Herman Melville's classic book. The quote reads as follows:
~ Forehead to forehead I meet thee, this third time, Moby Dick! On deck there!- brace sharper up; crowd her into the wind's eye. He's too far off to lower yet, Mr. Starbuck. The sails shake! Stand over that helmsman with a top-maul! So, so; he travels fast, and I must down. But let me have one more good round look aloft here at the sea; there's time for that. An old, old sight, and yet somehow so young; aye, and not changed a wink since I first saw it, a boy, from the sand-hills of Nantucket! The same- the same!- the same to Noah as to me. There's a soft shower to leeward. Such lovely leewardings! They must lead somewhere ~
This serigraph is hand pulled and printed on Arches 88 paper, which is heavy weight, 100% cotton fiber, acid-free, neutral ph and buffered. The paper is mould made in France. I used transparent water-based inks, show here in black ink ~ please inquire if you are interested in other colors.from $60.00
