I was delighted to receive an e-mail from Hong Kong requesting a map for the illustrious Wall Street Journal, Asia.
A piece for their travel section, the brief was to illustrate a walk around the vibrant city of Brisbane, picking out key features from the accompanying article and tracing the path of the walk through the city. I also illustrated a location from the map for the second page, Southbank Market.

It was great fun to work on - having never been to Brisbane I now harbour a burning desire to visit - and I shouldn't have any problems finding my way around!
