A natural reaction to a polar vortex is to look south, think south, and dream south. There are fewer places to contemplate warmth and sunshine than Sedona in central Arizona. South of Flagstaff in an area renowned for its red rock formations, Sedona is named after the wife of the city's first postmaster—whose name is claimed to have been chosen by her mother because "it sounded pretty." Sedona’s natural beauty certainly reinforces the story, whether one believes it or not. Sedona's human history began with the Clovis culture but today is known as a center of spirituality and recreation —...

Our customers and fans keep us constantly motivated & inspired. From traveling around the U.S. (and far corners of the world!) to weddings & reunions, we are honored and humbled to be a part of their spaces and special events. Recently, one of our customers, Kate Morton sent us photos of her wall featuring designs from our National Parks collection. We fell in love with Kate's Adventure Timeline and set up an interview to find out more about what inspired her and why she chose metal signs. What inspired you to create a travel wall? Traveling is one of my greatest passions, especially to National Parks! I love taking road...

Thank you SO much for sharing your State Parks photos and memories with us! It is always a treat to see where our friends like to visit, explore, and unwind. Although we received many breathtaking photos, we chose three winners that especially inspired us to race to our desks and create a tribute poster in honor of that park. Below you will find the winning photos as well as a few of our favorite entries. Be sure to check the American National Monuments & Natural Wonders collection each month to see if your favorite state park gets poster-ized. Enjoy!

Rocky Mountain National Park, surrounded by three National Forests and one Wilderness Area, fully deserves its designation as one of North America's 29 World Biosphere Reserves. It is certainly one of the country’s premier National Parks as well. Only a few hours from Denver, it’s accessible via Boulder and the Peak to Peak Highway through Nederland/Ward. If you happen to find yourself in Estes Park, RMNP is just to the southwest, making for tempting shots of the park's interior before even entering the gates! After orienting one's self at the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center, it's easy to access some of the best...

At Anderson Design Group, we have always been involved in producing the posters we illustrate. When we started creating 18"x24" posters in 2004, all of our printing was done on offset printers. We would produce 500 to 1,000 prints of each new design and hope they would sell out. (14 years later, we still have some of those old prints laying around!) Eventually, digital printing came along, allowing us to do shorter runs of 10-20 posters whenever we came up with a new design. We would store them in our archive cave and pull them off the shelf each time someone placed an order. After we had...
