Road Signs

April 16, 2018 by Thea Starr in Shop Update

A lot of our work comes from the inspiration of the landscape that surrounds us. As cheesy as that sounds, if you've been here, you know what I mean. 

We live east of Seattle out in the burbs. There is an unassuming hill that we have to drive up and down to go to into town. At the very top of that hill you can see the Cascade Mountain Range in all its splendor. I love that shit. It warrants the swear. There are so many spots like this all over Western Washington. A spot on the sports field in Lakewood, WA where you can see Mount Rainier appear larger than life. A perfect framing of Mount Baker between two smaller mountains from the freeway in Mount Vernon, WA. The ability to see Mount Baker and Mount Rainier with a turn of the head from various points on the west side of Whidbey Island. And that's only the west side of our state, the east side also has great viewpoint spots.

Mountains - I love that shit

We travel a lot by car/truck and we've accumulated many memories from the road. I love the road signs that alert you to scenic vistas and historic spots. I wanted to create some wall art to represent those.

Mountains, Oceans, Road Trips and the Scenic Route. All to serve as reminders or inspiration for your next adventure.

Each sign is hand painted. (We're really adding a lot of color to our work this year!) Engraved walnut wood and strung with vegan leather cording. A little retro aesthetic, because I feel like many of the road signs we've encountered have that going on.

It's hard to choose a favorite, but being a native Whidbey Islander, I might lean towards the Oceans sign. How about you? Let me know in the comments below and thanks for following us along!

Lasers and love - Thea
