Each Creative Action Network poster is hand-printed and handled to make sure that only the highest quality is offered and sent out. The sturdy matte paper and premium inks create a vibrant, museum-quality image that looks great both framed and unframed. Posters are printed in Los Angeles, CA on Epson Enhanced Matte Paper heavyweight stock, with a wide color gamut and Epson UltraChrome HDR ink-jet technology. The framed poster arrives wrapped in a protective yet lightweight black frame and includes a shatter-resistant acrylite front protector that won't break during shipping. International orders may be subject to customs duties & taxes.

Artist Statement

The rainbow symbol can symbolize the LGBTQ cause, but the heart is a symbol of love. I wanted to play with both of these symbols in a design for LGBTQ rights. The love, symbolized in the heart, is not just love for each other, but love for self and all that you are and love that inspires understanding and empathy for others. In this design I wanted to see what would it look like to have pattern on pattern.and what tone and tint would do to the design. — Lyla Paakkanen
