Tree of Libterty T-Shirt

I'm a big fan of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, if you couldn't tell from this design. Most people who see it assume at first glance that the tree is the white tree of Gondor, and the script font in a circle around it must be the elvish script from the one ring. Only when they take a closer look do they see that the roots of the tree are soaking up blood and that the text is actually a famous quote from Thomas Jefferson.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of Patriots and Tyrants.

If the tree also reminds you of the Norse tree of life, Yggdrasil, that is not by coincidence, either. I took inspiration from Norse artwork in this design.
