Meet the artist - Paul Lanquist In the shadow of Mount St. Helens volcano, where the folklore of Big Foot and the legend of D.B. Cooper were born, illustrator Paul Lanquist creates a steady stream of poster art that tells the story of America. Lanquist, the grandson
of Dust Bowl farm laborers, grew up in a red-white- and-blue-collar home in Bakersfield, Calif.
He got his start working as a commercial illustrator for many Northwest chains
like Fred Meyer and GI Joe's. But he has a uniquely American past, which his work
embodies, often celebrating America’s
rugged individualist and its pioneer spirit. |
