Palm Trees at the Beach – The heat of the day makes the welcomed shade of an island palm a cool place to watch the boats go by. This t-shirt design was inspired by the beautiful sandy beach spot that awaits the beach lover on the west end of the tiny tropical island of Culebra, Puerto Rico.

The Designer
The Vision Behind the Art — Christine Johnson
Founder, Artist & Creative Director
Chris Johnson, Virgin Island Artist, known for her “Primitive” landscapes and town scenes, has captured in her art a record of the times. The bright colors and perspectives in her paintings reflect the present sights and feelings as she sees it. Her silk screens are taken from real places and capture the atmosphere of each place. She has attempted to mix the modern world scenes with primitive feelings. Each design tells a story of a day in tropical paradise. Virgin Islands and Austin, Tx. designer Chris Johnson invites you to enjoy the beauty and vivid color in these imaginative T-Shirt designs.
"I want people to put on a shirt and feel like they've stepped into a place," Christine says. "A harbor, a reef, a rainforest path. Somewhere serene."

The Sailaway Process
From Concept to Craft
A refined process combining design, material, and craftsmanship to deliver premium quality in every piece.
Original Painting
Christine hand-paints each original scene using reference from real tropical locations around the world. No digital shortcuts — pure brushwork.
Screen Preparation
The painting is carefully transferred onto a silk screen by hand, preserving the organic, imperfect beauty of each original brushstroke.
Premium Printing
High-density, vibrant inks are pulled through the screen onto premium fabric — creating an oversized, painterly print with incredible color depth.
