View post →For this print it is my desire to symbolize the natural forces that have taken over the Japanese people and their land: the earthquakes and the tsunamis.

Also included a tree trunk of the Declaration of Independence. Â The thumbnail in the lower left corner is the Declaration […]
View post →These drawings are a progression on the GAP Liberty Tree ad campaign. Â Just playing with a purpose with symbols and information. I was thinking about the Declaration of Independence, our fundamental rights, the American flag, etc. Margaret Hurst
