State 48

Abstract landscape painted in watercolor on a background of a 1921 Arizona map found in the 1921 edition of Collier's Encyclopedia. This was the first edition that showed the transition from Arizona Territory to our 48th state in 1912. A loose geometric version of the state flag is superimposed on a variety of palms, cacti, pines, and other vegetation. Prints and cards are available. The watermark is NOT on the printed images: A3 (11.7x16.5) print (paper size - the printed map is a bit smaller, and the artwork a bit smaller yet still). Prints are shipped flat in rigid mailer with plastic sleeve. Notecards - set of 4 A6 (4.6 x 6.25"), blank inside, with white envelopes.
