I’m probably doing this “Art” thing wrong…

My favorite part of my Paper Places map art is how flexible the format is. Is that a weird thing to say? I know some artists have such strong feelings about how their art is viewed that they prescribe certain lightbulbs, but my hope for my work is that it feels personal and adaptable and like home.

That’s why I’ll swap out the colors for folks buying in-person at pop-up events, that’s why you have your choice of 20 colors when you’re buying online, that’s why I have standardized options for ordering a custom location or adding a place marker on a specific address, and that’s why I teach a workshop that shows you how to open up the frame and add your own artwork to your map.

To that end, if you’re looking for a unique gift for someone this holiday season—and by unique, to be clear, I do mean absolutely one-of-a-kind personalized specifically to what you know your special person will love—perhaps I could make a Custom Paper Place for you?
