ideas for using maps

Make copies of maps and prepare them with gesso before you leave on your trip.

Make a hand-drawn map of the area you are visiting and incorporate little drawings of interesting points along the way.

Use a map as a starting point and add collected ephemera such as business cards, tickets, postage stamps, cut-out words and photos from brochures, wine labels, paper money, paper napkins, postcards, and anything else that catches your eye.

Use a map as a foundation for your journaling.

Cut a map into interesting shapes that can be folded out from the page to reveal your art.

Use different types of maps for different looks, such as nautical charts for marine scenes or hiking trail guides for nature paintings.
