Faux Vintage Vermont Travel Posters By Kevin Ruelle Using uniquely American, early 20th century watercolor style in concert with a period airbrush technique, Kevin Ruelle creates the Art Deco Vermont Poster that our nostalgia calls for, but adds the perspective that only a Vermonter could know.

Each poster celebrates a facet of the monumental popularity of Vermont's bucolic reputation. Very sophisticated, yet bold, this is one kind of art you can easily choose for someone you love as a gift.

The giclee reproductions are made using archival inks with an elegantly textured, 100% cotton based, heavy fine art paper and acid-free matte to last a lifetime.
