The USDA Forest Service has commissioned many installations, wayside panels and other publications from us. Here are a few of the best.

Some other USDA Forest Service murals

Eifert_mural_Panorama_poste
Taylor Creek is at the south end of Lake Tahoe, just where the creek enters the lake. Installation included a wayside panel, posters and jigsaw puzzles that contributed greatly to the Interpretive Association’s revenue.
Whitebark-Pines
Whitebark Pines in Peril – commissioned by the Crater Lake Institute but used in many ways by the Forest Service to explain the threats to whitebark pines. Posters, puzzles, flyers and the cover of a special issue of American Forests magazine are just some of the uses for this painting.
