Two-Dimensional And Calligraphic

No one uses the word 'perspicuity' anymore. To be clear – they should.
A pet project – a small map using conductive inks for some fellow calligraphers. This was the seal around the map.
This is the small map for calligraphers with the twisting inner circles of the puzzle aligned to complete a circuit of conductive ink.
The conductive map without my hand blocking the view.
Found a lovely pecan ink that was only 80% waterproof - it ages wonderfully with a bit of water but still keeps my love of line.
This was a massive conductive map I made for some steampunk enthusiasts - at 4 foot by 6 foot, it was my biggest project when unfolded.
The large conductive map would light up the different paths taken by Jules Verne characters when a magnifying glass was set over their respective starting points.
Folding this map was almost as complicated as the circuit within. It's a good thing I love crisp folds.
Each of the front facing panels of the fold was given its own illustration - working as a hint at what's within, and hints on how to get it folded back again.

Calligraphic flourishing taking on a more illustrative aspect in the homage to one of my favorite quotes from the Night Circus.
Upside down, right side up - as a lover of palindromes, I have a tendency to turn things in ways they probably were never meant for.
In this flourish - the croquet scene from Alice In Wonderland takes center stage.

A present for my car-loving nephew - I used cut paper to get the sharpest of lines - then used used that to make… a mess.
