ABOUT US
I started my recycled art business with the idea of recycling and creating art that I believed people could enjoy. My two sisters own Pop-Cycle, an art store in Tucson, AZ that caters to recycled art. The store consists of many local and foreign artists that make their art from recycled or sustainable goods. As an artist I find it vital to support many types of artists in their endeavors. They use their medium as an expression of feeling and dedication to providing positive and inspiring products for all to see. Without art our world would be a very unimaginative and boring place.
I wanted to have a part in what they are doing so after a brainstorm session with my sisters this was what we developed. I have since refined the original idea and have expanded into other realms as well. I am always developing new ideas so that I may provide many choices for others to enjoy.
My art has been a great outlet for me and has allowed me to focus on a quality product at reasonable prices. All my artwork is made by hand out of recycled license plates. I have plates from many different decades as well as from many different states. I am dedicated to producing my artwork with standards that have allowed me to be successful in many areas of my career such as teaching, juvenile detention and small business owner.
I pride myself in quality over quantity because each piece is cut by hand, filed and tested before I place the item for sale. This ensures that you, the consumer will be getting a piece that is durable, functional and artistic. I wouldn't have it any other way.
Recycling and taking an active role in protecting our future through my art is very important to me. My family and I have been involved with projects to save the planet for over a decade. I feel very strongly that we can help save our environment with every can, plastic bottle and many other items that we recycle. I hope that many of you feel the same way and can appreciate the dedication it takes from us all to make a difference.
Thank you for your time in looking at my art work. Please feel free to contact me via e-mail if you have any questions or if you would like to order a custom piece. I look forward to providing you with an excellent product and hope that you continue shopping with The Lost Highway Sign Company for many years.
Sincerely,
Levi Koenen
Owner and Founder, The Lost Highway Sign Co.
