I make art because I have to. In recent years I’ve been making posters in a style reminiscent of the National Parks posters. The original posters that promoted our parks got a big boost when FDR’s New Deal program to fund art, the Works Progress Administration came along in 1933-1941. What developed was a truly American style of poster. I work in this genre. The Great Depression is echoed in today’s struggles: monopoly power, inequality, working with dignity for a fair wage; cooperating together to protect public health, our national parks and national resources, working together for our collective future.
