This is an original piece of artwork created on 140 lb. fine art paper.
A small portion of the map may be printed on to the paper due to the volume of maps we send out, but all colored areas are always hand-painted with watercolors and the borders are heat-embossed by hand. Aleisha also personally labels each neighborhood name and any requested personalizations.
This map design is available in various sizes - all are standard print sizes, which means they are easy to frame.
Please see our guide here if you’re looking for additional help with framing your map.

Each of Aleisha's hand-painted maps goes through a detailed creative process, from the initial outline sketch, to adding patterns and keys, and then ultimately the finished product. Aleisha spends a significant amount of time on each phase of the map-making life cycle and she's developed a routine for how each one gets made.
