Tonwen Jones - Mapmaker Illustrator
•
I wanted to share the work of a gifted mapmaker with you all.
Tonwen Jones is a cartographer who designs beautiful illustrated maps of all kinds of different places. Most recently she created this marvel especially for London Zoo’s ‘Land Of The Lions’ exhibit, what a dream commission!
I also adore her Reykjavik map as it’s somewhere I have always wanted to go. Tonwen makes it looks like a land from a fairytale which only provokes my wanderlust further. These geographical masterpieces are just part of what this talented topographer can do.
She has worked with a lot of prestigious clients and had artwork published in The Guardian, National Geographic Traveller, Marie Claire and a host of other magazines, newspapers and books. She is available for bespoke commissions for wedding artwork, which make great quirky invitations or gifts.
Her bespoke maps have such glorious colour schemes too, I would love to have one on my wall one day. There is so much to see in each piece they would look gorgeous in big frame.
Check out some of her graphic maps for yourself.
