Mapmaker, illustrator, and imaginer of worlds Illustration and Cartography by J.Stevenson at ImagineBetterWorlds.com If you enjoy my work, consider donating a Kofi Or joining me on Patreon I have a passion for maps and architecture, objects and scenes. I also enjoy creating icons, logos, and custom lettering. I love envisioning terrains and locations, buildings and vegetation; all of the little details that create that ineffable sense of place, the things that make it real for the viewer. I am all about imagining better worlds. If you're interested in working together, feel free to email me at sirinkman@outlook.com and let me know more about the project you would like to work on. My work can be seen at these links.... Tumblr Cartographers Guild Behance Artstation Red Bubble shop and now... INPRNT And if you are interested in getting prints, I opened an INPRNT shop for now. I will add prints over time. If you have an interest in a print that isn't available, let me know. |

The story behind this bee relates to a wonderful mapmaker known as MistyBeee 
,
, who just joined up here on DA, so go say hey and watch her. She makes gorgeous maps and does some watercolor scenes as well.
Here's an example of her work. Just splendid stuff. I think you'll agree.
And now for some maps and other fun stuff [in no particular order]... go check them out. Comment, fave, watch those that you like.

UPDATE - Pre-order the Atlas of Design

This is the volume with Skenara in it.
This is the volume with Skenara in it.
So if you are interested in that, you should pre-order to ensure that you get a copy.
You can order here - atlasofdesign.org/order/
I receive no profit from the sale of the books.
I just thought people might be interested.
Update - this is a shoutout for Kelleri 
who is looking to do some map commissions.
She does good work and very cool atmospheric and moody pieces. Check her out and see if you might like a map done.

My map of Skenara was chosen as one of 32 maps to be in the 2018 Atlas of Design.
How cool is that. I think it might be the only fantasy map, maybe. That's cool.
This is the 4th volume of the Atlas, being released every two years.
Here's a blurb about the people who do the selection and publishing - NACIS.
"Published every two years by the North American Cartographic Information Society,
the Atlas of Design shows off some of the world's best cartography."
I am thrilled to be included in the ranks of such esteemed map makers.
I'll add publishing info when I have it.

I didn't realise your birthday was recently - so late happy birthday for that. You are now OLDER. (Well I guess we are everyday). 
Hehe, indeed Thanks
Interestingly, even as I get older, I feel young-ish.
At least in spirit. My body disagrees with me

Love your style man! Like the vintage cartography of it (not to mention your architecture and urban design concepts). Don't get that much these days, since most plans in the field are now made digitally. Awesome stuff!
