Portraits Drawn on Maps by Ed Fairburn via http://www.thisiscolossal.com/2012/11/portraits-drawn-on-maps-by-ed-fairburn/# Ed Fairburn, Cambridge Map, Portrait Au Crayon, White Drawing, Art Carte, Art Et Illustration, A Level Art, Illustrated Map, Black And White Drawing

Artist Ed Fairburn utilizes the chaotic patchwork of roads, trains, and rivers printed on maps as the framework for his large-scale portraits. Almost like a sculptor carving a subject from a block of stone, or a constellation highlighted in a clump of stars, Fairburn uses meticulous ink or pencil cross hatching to create portraits hidden amongst the topographical features. You can see much more of his work over on Facebook. (via artchipel) More
