Steven was the first artist in this 30-day collection with is Black Lodge-inspired print.
WELCOME TO TWIN PEAKS
I adore Steven’s piece titled “Welcome to Twin Peaks” sign spot.
I shared more about this spot and the many variations of the “Welcome to Twin Peaks” sign in this article.
The colors, the style … everything about it is spot on!
“The art came from a place of great love for Twin Peaks ever since I watched it many, many years ago,” explained Steven when asked about the designs created for this collection.
This place is also one of my favorite film locations to visit in Snoqualmie, Washington.
Here’s a look at it from January 2020 during my most recent trip to the Pacific Northwest.
DOUBLE R DINER
Society6 offered a bonus design for today’s release – a sketch of the Double R Diner.
Located at 137 W North Bend Way in North Bend, Washington, Thompson’s Cafe was opened in 1941 by Roy Thompson but was renamed to Mar-T Cafe ten years later. Pat Cokewell, a former server in the restaurant, purchased the diner and operated it for 21 years. Kyle Twede assumed ownership from 1997 to early 2020.
Today, Rachel and Max now run the diner and have made it even more special for Twin Peaks fans. Check out their Twitter and Instagram accounts.
