For the second edition of her wonderful YA steampunk book “Ivey and the Airship” — part of the Aether’s Edge series — Author Cheryl Ammeter engaged us to serve as art director, designer and writing consultant. Given the place names and a rough sketch of this world, we created this detailed map as one of the illustrations for the book’s interior, and it’s one of our favorite projects. Maps can take a lot of time to execute, but are often some of the most rewarding work we do.
