If you're looking for the StencilGirl and USArtQuest Blog Hop, please keep scrolling down.

This Friday’s featured artist is Joshua Peters of J. Peters Fine Mapping Co. and his unique, high-quality, hand-drawn maps! Having had an artist residency on the Big Island, I am particularly drawn to his maps of Hawaii!

Joshua writes:
"Mapping is a lot more than just lines drawn on paper. It’s one of our oldest ways of describing the world around us. Every map ever drawn is an expression of someone’s perception of the world, and just like each person is different, each map is different, and shows us a glimpse of someone else’s life. That unique quality is the reason I’m so drawn to maps, because no two people would ever draw the same thing. That’s how I approach each project, and the opportunity to create something so unique and so personal really inspires me to do my best work. I’ve always believed in precision, in quality, in hard work, and in all the little details that come together to make something really beautiful."
