Revolution! Print Series



We've been sitting on these for a while, for no good reason, so before they end up being 6 months old, I'm happy to present our Revolution! print series. Hope you enjoy!

The Revolution! series draws from historic events of the pre-Revolutionary War period. The rebellion of The Stamp Act, The Boston Tea Party and The Liberty Tree were symbols of unifying images and events in American History. The propaganda of the time was in character with the popular line-drawing illustration style of the time. For our print series, we wanted to imagine what it would be like if a modern style were applied to rally the historic call-to-arms of the citizens and colonies leading to the American Revolutionary War.
