Zion

I love our National Parks, and am grateful to our forefathers John Muir and Teddy Roosevelt, among others, whose wisdom and persistence led to the preservation of these areas of natural beauty and historical significance for all to enjoy. Here I interpreted a picture of my husband and his friend, which I took at Zion National Park last year, to pay tribute to this historical era. Teddy and John in 1919, Doug and Dennis in 2016, and hopefully future generations in 2116.

The WPA National Park posters had a distinctive style and were designed to entice Americans to travel around the country and appreciate the many wondrous things preserved in our parks. My original art quilt is done in the style of these historic posters.
