MAPS & GLOBES (PART 3)


All this reminds me of grade school projects where I had to paint watercolor maps then draw pictures of the country's exports all around the edges. Here's (above) a professional's take on the same thing.


Here's (above) a David Hockney-style map. Very pretty, and it actually does make me think about all the
dirt and stones and trees in those places. It's odd how purely graphic depictions of things sometimes capture their essense almost as well as realism.


Above, my favorite kind of map.
