there’s a new online class over on skillshare and i am all signed up! i love maps – adore them. ever since i was a little kid and my dad kept a stash of maps in the glovebox of our vw bug i’ve been fascinated with them. we’d take road trips and i loved to see where all the pretty little colored lines would take us. so when i saw that travel blogger and designer Anne Ditmeyer of Prêt à Voyager was teaching Map Design: Learn to Communicate Places Beautifully, i signed up within a few nano seconds. No design experience required and It’s just a whopping $20 to hang out with us [virtually], be filled with inspiration + make a sweet map going anywhere you choose.
the class is taught online and teaches both hand drawn and digital (Photoshop or Illustrator) map making. check out anne’s pinterest board for an idea of all the different kinds of maps we can make, and the many uses for them. i’m pretty excited to start sharing some here. the more, the merrier and it would be so cool to have all corners of the globe represented — i hope you’ll join me! and, it’s low stress because but once the class starts you’ll have access to the information even after it’s over. let’s hit the road…
PRESENT AND CORRECT NYC MAP.
