New maps on the way this week, here’s the first one, the Calder Valley. A home to many things from this map maker, the Golden Lion, several running clubs, UFO sightings, the Calderdale Way relay race (coming up this weekend), the Coiners and a whole host of other things. It’s also about time I made a map of home, too

My new satellite map of the lakes is now out and after some faff, the tag is working on here too, so go check it out!

One big Saturday, out for 20+ miles and 8000 ft or so of @barkislandrunner Paddy Buckley before home on next to no sleep, quick change and out to @newcenturymcr for @thetwilightsad . Lost count of how many times I’ve seen them over the years but they never fail to put on mesmerising shows.
Now back to making maps for a while.
Sunday WIP on a new one of the Calder Valley, not a bad place to live at all. Can anyone spot Stoodley pike? Belongs to Tod by the way 😉

It’s out! A new map and a new style. Satellite images, combined and enhanced with some shading and tweaks. Available direct on the website or via the Etsy shop.

Inspired by the shots of Earth from @nasaartemis I’ve been working on some new pieces and basing them on @europeanspaceagency data from the Sentinel missions. Bit of a change from using that data for remote sensing but good fun making them and seeing what I can do with it.

Super happy with how this 3D walnut map machining came out for @ottermaps trophy. Satisfying crisp cut text on this one 💎

After much chat about it with many many folks over the years (and finally making some time) I’ve started up a Patreon. The idea is to give a bit more of a view into what I do - whether those things work and make it to a final product or not - and maybe give away the odd piece too. Plus it’s all much more about the maps than scrolling through endless ads tha folks may not want! So if you fancy going and having a look, here it is (and linked in the bio too)

Updating some pieces ready for going innit the new shop. Don’t exactly forget these ones, but it’s good to see them again and enjoy them with fresh eyes.

Had a conversation this weekend about the minimalist Wainwright maps I made a while back and it made me revisit them. Need to get them on the new site so there can be prints and canvas pieces for all.

Mulling over some old maps and some new plans and it led me back to a commission of Mull from a few years back. Always loved this one and think I can remake something similar for the new website that’s being built (albeit mostly in the background at the moment).
