Friday Favorite: Below the Boat

4/5/2013

National Read a Road Map Day by Mary C. Nasser
This Friday’s featured artists are Robbie and Kara Johnson of Below the Boat!
Below the Boat
This husband and wife duo start with a bathymetric chart (the underwater equivalent of a topographic map), the contours are laser-cut into sheets of Baltic birch and glued together to create layers of land and water.

Of course, I’m partial to the Northern Michigan maps, having spent 11 summers there!
These maps bring back fond memories for me.

See more of their charts at Below the Boat!

TGIF!

Hi Mary: I found you through your blog hop.
I had never thought a lot about cartography paintings before but am really enjoying your posts. Also, I loved your "no rules" blog hop. Very great to network in a as interested basis.
Best to you,
