Illustrate a map of your own imaginary world.
Maps are good for more than charting geography, they can lead us to extraordinary places too. Join graphic novelist Ira Marcks and take a trip through the famous and obscure map artifacts that help define the art form and then put these new insights to use as we plan and design a personal utopia.
Here are the topics I'll be covering:
- A history of map symbols and icons.
- The fundamental elements of map design.
- How maps represent stories of the fantastic.
- How maps use metaphor.
- How to create map landscapes.
- Creating symbols, icons, and type.
- Adding 'artifact' color and texture.
This class is access to students working in digital and traditional mediums. I'm working in Clip Studio Paint for visual clarity.
