I was delighted to be commissioned to illustrate a map for the American Automobile Association, AAA Traveler Magazine.The article describes a drive through the beautiful Dolomite mountains in Italy. Small spot illustrations mark the main towns along the way and the loose brush lettering was also used throughout the copy as a visual link between word and image.
I've travelled to Italy frequently over the last few years and was delighted to explore an area of it that's new to me - now I just need to visit!
