About this print
- Reads TARANTULA XING
- Tarantula on a desert highway
- Saguaros, red mesas and a yellow sun
- Retro road sign humor
Every fall in the desert Southwest, male tarantulas go wandering, and they are not in a hurry. Tarantula Crossing puts one right on the center line of a two-lane highway, next to a yellow TARANTULA XING sign.
Saguaros, red mesas and a big yellow sun fill the background in a retro screen-print style with warm orange, slate and gold inks. A little creepy, mostly funny, and very Arizona.
Choose an unframed print, or have it framed by hand in Phoenix in black, white, walnut, or natural wood, with or without a slim white mat.

Questions about Tarantula Crossing

Natural wood suits the warm desert colors. Black makes the yellow sign stand out.
Good to know
What is the difference between Print and Framed Print?
Print ships as the artwork alone on heavyweight matte stock. Framed Print arrives in your choice of black, white, walnut, or natural wood frames, ready to hang.
How long until my order ships?
Every Frontier Prints piece is made to order. Prints ship in 3 to 5 business days, framed pieces in 5 to 7.
Will the colors match my screen?
Screens differ, so expect slight shifts in color. Wood grain on walnut frames is unique to each piece.
Do framed prints have glass?
No. Framed pieces have an acrylic or styrene front, never glass. It is lighter than glass and much less likely to shatter, so it is safer to ship and to hang.
Are prints signed or numbered?
No. Prints are open edition and are not signed or numbered.
