LondonistEast And North London Brought To Life In Hand-Drawn Maps
The area around South Tottenham
Talented bunch you lot, aren't you? When we put out a call recently to get Londoners creating hand-drawn maps of their own areas of London, we were impressed by the response.
These latest offering are by Jane Smith of JaneIllustration. We recommend taking a look at her website for more of her work — it's not just London that she covers (and it's not just maps either, check out her east London drawings).
