"In the dry season, Shark Valley in Everglades National Park is home to many creatures. The area, composed mainly of large expanses of oolitic limestone, is inhabited by alligators, ibis, wood storks, spoonbills, raccoons, and white tailed deer to name a few. This image was taken from the Shark Valley overlook which gives an amazing vista of the Everglades for miles around. The overlook was originally constructed 1965 as an observation-fire tower." -Silvia

Miami photographer, Silvia Ros, and Kansas based designer and educator, Tim Hossler, have collaborated on numerous creative projects over the last decade. They began working together at the Wolfsonian-FIU in Miami Beach and have cultivated their partnership over time as they have both worked to advance their creative and professional careers. As a collaborative team, Silvia and Tim utilize their shared interest in history, architecture and visual representations to create visually provoking graphic images which include a specific sense of space and location within a historical context.

Reviving the legacy of the New Deal arts projects by inviting artists from all 50 states to create a new collection of posters celebrating our shared natural landmarks and treasured sites. Proceeds from this campaign support National Parks Conservation Association, the independent, nonpartisan voice working to strengthen and protect our nation’s natural, historical, and cultural heritage.

Each poster is hand-printed and handled, to make sure that only the highest quality is offered and sent out. The matte paper and high quality of inks make for a vibrant image which looks great both framed, and au-naturel. Printed in Los Angeles, CA, on Epson Enhanced Matte Paper, heavyweight stock, high color gamut, using Epson UltraChrome HDR ink-jet technology. Framed posters offer the same, museum-quality printed poster, but wrapped in a protective black frame. The frame is lightweight and includes a shatter-resistant acrylite front protector, so it won't break in the mail.
