Maps

I really love maps. I think they're such an engaging way of conveying information. I occasionally do illustrated maps, though I'm by no means a virtuoso mapmaker. I'm currently working on one for National Geographic Adventure magazine and stumbled upon this amazing site called Strange Maps, which catalogues maps of all different kinds including:

The Illustrated


The Satirical ("How Japan Sees America" map)


and The Fantastic ("The Land of Oz"... shaped like Kansas)


Below are a few of my illustrated maps.
