LADY LIBERTY - AARON FOSTER
$3500.00

Bearing the Torch

Handmade from vintage US license plates by artist Aaron Foster, this creation combines three of our nation's greatest icons: the Statue of Liberty, the Stars and Stripes, and the automobile. Standing before the American flag, Lady Liberty holds out her torch to the "huddled masses yearning to breathe free," all carved from vintage license plates from across the country and mounted on painted pine. Each is one of a kind. Handmade in California.

Aaron Foster

Aaron Foster's art is created with US license plates from all over the country, hand carved into distinct forms and mounted onto a cedar background. His license plate map of the United States has been featured on "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" on ABC.

A native Northern Californian, Aaron spent five years living and working in Atlanta, GA, where, he began his career with reclaimed wood from old homes and barns.

The varied styles and never ending palette of America's old license plates allow for unlimited color combinations in his work. The license plate map of the United States was inspired partly from his collection of old globes and school maps that fill his eclectic home. See all creations.
