About my work:
Maps are designed on clear plexiglass - I trace the map lines within the silhouette in white ink, creating original patterns from the topography or city block lines. Each map & illustration is backed with an original photograph I took on location. The unframed, dimensional nature of my work showcases the map, illustration and photographs in a single, contemporary design.
All maps are based on GIS, Forest Service Maps and historical files.
