Julián Castro Quote — Texas Typography Art by Betsy Crum

The former San Antonio mayor said it at the 2012 convention, and it has outlasted the speech. Betsy lettered it in the stacked hand-cut capitals of her quote series, black on white, his name small at the border. It is Texas quote art that reads as encouragement first and politics a distant second.

It works in an office, a classroom, a graduate's first apartment, or a gallery wall with the Ann Richards and Molly Ivins quotes. More in Texas quote prints and San Antonio art.

Product FAQ

Where is the line from?

The 2012 convention, where the former San Antonio mayor said it in a speech most people have forgotten. The sentence outlasted the speech.

Is it a political print?

It reads as encouragement first and politics a distant second. Black capitals on white, his name small at the border, nothing else in the frame. The line has to carry it alone, and it does.

Who is it for?

An office, a classroom, or a graduate's first apartment. It is a good print for somebody at the start of something who needs to hear that forward is the only direction available.

What hangs with it?

The Ann Richards and Molly Ivins quotes. All three are Texans who said plain things in public, and cut to the same state shape they hang as one argument.

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.
