New Orleans would have to be one of my favourite places to stay in the USA.
This is a map I did for They Draw And Travel -- they asked for a very personal map -- things that aren't necessarily in the tourist guides but the things YOU love to do in a city. And that's exactly what this is. We often visit NOLA due to my musician-husband's desire to have been born there, so we have many rituals, a lot of which are on the map.
I have always wanted to illustrate a map and I had sooooo much fun doing this. If I have time I may do another for Melbourne!

Nice idea for this week's IF theme.
This is simply FABULOUS!!! I love all the beautiful detail and colors in there. It's wonderful. Your handlettering is awesome! How on earth do you do that? WONDERFUL! Hey, thanks so much for stopping by.

very cool!
That turned out great!
From a local New Orleanian, I love the map! Are you selling these?
Please please sell me a copy of this! I am a relocated New Orleanian, and this is amazing. How can I buy one!?
Please let me know how I can buy one. I love this!! You really capture the essence of New Orleans.
Hi Mignon thank you so much for your comments and desire to buy one! I'm so glad that it appeals to a native New Orleanian.
I'll be opening a store soon, but until then if you want to email me at kim {at} foobox {dot} com - we can work something out!!
