General Information

I love maps! I was recently commissioned to make a bunch of coffee & adventure signs, so I decided to make a cut out of the map and fill the voids with blue epoxy to make it look like water. This came out so well and it gets a lot of attention

Does all the lettering come from the easel font bank? Did you design this directly in easel or do you use CAD software?
