Thorin Oakenshield- Utility of Mapsby ~lizstaley

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / Fantasy

Thorin Oakenshield, with Thror's map and Key. Ink, Marker, and printing on book page.

So, my parents brought me a bunch of my childhood things from storage, and one of the books in the pile is this really old Atlas. We're talking 1960 old. Just a bit out of date. I thought it would be neat to repurpose some of the old pages for art projects, to make something beautiful out of something that most people wouldn't have much use for. This is the first one I've done. I thought that the Atlas introduction, talking about the importance of maps, their uses, and how to read them, just spoke to me of Thorin and his father's map.

I will be selling the original, if anyone's interested.
