I love this. What is the material you used to accentuate the "Hilo" portion of the map?

You're inspiring me to get out my maps and start using them. The funny thing is I LOVE maps and I have some, but I haven't really gotten them out and incorporated them into my art! One day! And alll because of you and the wonderful things you do with maps! :^) patsy

Now when I come here I wonder where Mary is taking me? Which island? Will I see a spot I visited years ago in Hawaii?
Your work does not disappoint!

Very good composition with that round Hawaii detail, seems in porcelain or a magnifying glass, turquoise colors mixed with the land I love. Saludos
