Best Tee Shirts
"The whimsical creatures Roy Wasson Valle silk-screens onto primary-colored tee shirts seem vaguely disturbing -- one looks like a Cheshire cat on crack, another appears to be a bear that resembles the demonic rabbit from Donnie Darko -- but they're strangely endearing, too. Wear one around, and you're sure to gather compliments all day long."

Flight of Fantasy
By Winter Holden
"Take, for example, Annette, a half-avian, half-human figure named after the famous Mouseketeer. She wears nothing but a red-and-white polka-dot bikini bottom and some triangular tan lines where her top is curiously missing. It's a darling piece, but Valle does more than just charm. Every meticulous detail is intentional. Her pear-shaped body, with slightly bulging thighs and wide hips, displays an understanding of the female body as imperfect. A clay lighter and discarded cigarette instills her with a human vice, trapping the character somewhere in between reality and fiction."

Creature Comforts: Toy Boy gets Shirty
By Michele Laudig
"Not content to stick to one medium, the ASU sculpture grad -- who grew up in Cuernavaca, Mexico, and Prescott, Arizona -- has dabbled in film and is lately turning two-dimensional images into limited edition toys, tapping the urban vinyl trend that's blurring the boundaries between collectible art and common playthings."

Old Tees, New Tricks
By Tami Bickley
"Wasson... likes the idea of transferring his prints to T-shirts because 'it allows a lot of people to have access to my art'. While Wasson is flattered if people wear his T-shirts for status, he wants anyone who wishes to enjoy his art to be able to do so at a small cost."
