Stephen F. Austin Quote Art Print by Betsy Crum

A black-and-white word of encouragement from Stephen F. Austin, the Father of Texas, set by Betsy Crum in clean, timeless typography that earns its spot on any wall. This piece of Texas art runs with our quote prints — it says keep going without getting preachy about it.

Where It'll Work in Your House

An office, a study, or wherever the day's work gets done — a little encouragement where it helps most — and black and white slips into any gallery wall without a fuss. It suits a dorm desk too. The Texas State Capitol print gives the words a landmark to stand beside, and the Molly Ivins quote adds another strong Texas voice from Austin art — history and plain talk, side by side.

Grads, fresh starts, and any Texan chasing something big — that's its specialty. See Texas graduation gifts and Texas gifts.

The Father of Texas kept his advice short; we kept the margins clean.

Product FAQ

Who was the Father of Texas?

Stephen F. Austin — and this print takes him at his word, setting a short, plainspoken line of his encouragement in clean black-and-white typography.

Where does a black-and-white quote print do its job?

An office, a study, or wherever the day's work gets done — a little encouragement where it helps most. Black and white also slips into any gallery wall without a fuss.

Is it the right send-off for a graduate?

That's its specialty — grads, fresh starts, and any Texan chasing something big. It says keep going without getting preachy about it.

Which prints back it up on a wall?

The Texas State Capitol print gives the words a landmark to stand beside, and the Molly Ivins quote piece adds another strong Texas voice. History and plain talk, side by side.

Will this look like an original painting or a print?

Crum Art takes the scanning and photographing of original paintings seriously — we work to capture the texture of the canvas or paper the original was created on, so that texture shows through in the print. Combined with the cotton rag paper’s own subtle surface and the hand-signing, many customers say they cannot tell if it’s an original or a print. That’s intentional. These are not flat digital reproductions — they are fine art prints that carry the soul of the original.

What sizes does this print come in?

Our fine art prints are available in standard rectangle and square sizes. Rectangles: 8x10 unframed matted to 11x14, 11x14 unframed, 16x20, 18x24, and 24x36. Squares: 8x8 unframed matted to 12x12, 12x12 unframed, 16x16, 20x20, and 24x24. Each size ships ready to frame, making it easy to find the right fit for your wall.

How do I make a gallery wall with art prints?

Start with an anchor piece and build outward — many Crum Art prints are part of series designed to group together as a statement gallery wall, or hang individually as standalone pieces. Since every image is sized to fit standard frames, mixing sizes is easy: lay the arrangement out on the floor first, keep about two to three inches between frames, and center the whole grouping at eye level.
