Learn to create your own map, from a political map of a fantasy continent, to an isometric illustration of a moon-base, to a treasure map or an accurate plan of your real-world apartment. We will learn about different types of maps, practice inking techniques, and learn to antique/hand color your maps. Students will work on one large map project throughout the class.


  • Some level of comfort/familiarity with drawing is helpful.

    This studio is not wheel chair accessible from the interior due to two steps, but is accessible through an exterior door.

Douglas, Jamie

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.
