Description
Pick up this great gift idea. Show your civic pride through the graphic and tactile appeal of these hand letterpressed prints. Like leaves cities are organic entities with a supporting structure that branches out in many directions. Andrew Martis illustrates this analogy with his leaf-like letterpress prints representing cities and neighborhoods from across the country--from his home base of Brooklyn to Austin to San Francisco. Each intricate design shows the major neighborhoods of its locale as a network forming an organically abstracted map in a leafy palette of natural color. At the bottom of each print is a quote from a notable resident. Handmade in Los Angeles California. Brooklyn: "The Borough of Trees." San Francisco: "Find your place on the planet. Dig in and take responsibility from there." - Gary Snyder Austin: "Be here. Be present. Wherever you are be there." - Willie Nelson Boston: "Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience." - Ralph Waldo Emerson Portland: "The trick to forgetting the big picture is to look at everything close up." - Chuck Palahniuk Chicago: "Study nature love nature stay close to nature. It will never fail you." - Frank Lloyd Wright Essential Details: Handmade Item. Made from acid free ink cotton paper Measurements 24" H x 18" W Notes: Comes rolled in a protective tube.
