The Kouba Gallery selected nature-inspired artworks, which our team crafted into beautiful prints. Merging passion with precision, these pieces reflect their dedication to art and production.

About the Artwork: To be the most incredible son ever, I gifted my mom a trip to Hawaii for what I thought was her big 5-0. Two weeks into the vacation, we were at a luau on her birthday, and the fire dancer asked her how old she was, and she replied, “48.”…. Here’s a photo I took on that trip.

Road to Nowhere
The Artist: Tiffany P.
Department at WHCC: Front End Printing
About the Artwork: This piece was inspired by one of my favorite video game levels in Crash Bandicoot, Road to Nowhere. It is one of the more challenging levels to beat because of the dense fog and missing floorboards. Similarly, we can never expect all the challenges life may throw at us or where we might end up, but we always persist.
