Fantastic Cartography: Illustrated Maps
Adult Multi-Week | Available
Learn to create your own fantasy map. It could be a continent, a city, a castle, a dungeon, or a whole world! We'll learn about different types of maps, practice inking techniques, and learn to antique/hand color your maps. You will work on one large map project throughout the class.
- Some level of comfort/familiarity with drawing is helpful.
Accessibility notes: Many artmaking processes require the ability to sit or stand for extended periods of time, fine motor skills/finger dexterity, repetitive motions, vision, and some amount of physical strength. VisArts values making classes accessible to everyone, and is always happy to work with students to make accommodations when possible. Please reach out to info@visarts.org with specific questions related to accessibility or accommodations.
Classes are confirmed one week prior to the start date. In order to help us confirm classes, please register as early as possible.
Jamie Douglas
Hello! I’m Jamie, an illustrator, cartoonist and obsessive sketch-booker living in Richmond, Virginia. Whether based in personal experience or plucked from impossible dreamscapes, my art is narrative and imaginitive. It's often full of tiny details and humor. I was born in 1988 and I haven’t stopped drawing since. My go-to drawing supplies are the super thick & juicy 1.6 mm Bic Cristal pens (black ink), and those whiteout correction pen things.
