Where We Walk
100 Illustrated Maps of Wonderful Walks from Around the World
by Nate Padavick and Salli S. Swindell

The maps you see in this book were submitted to They Draw & Travel in a call for content in Winter 2021. We challenged artists around the world to illustrate a map of their favorite walkabout. From routes and rambles to treks and trails to saunters and strolls, this book captures the wonders of their wanders! While nearly 200 maps were submitted, we only had room to print 100 of them in this book. You can see them all on They Draw & Travel’s website.Where do you walk? What’s your favorite route? Next time you take that trail, pay extra attention to the sights you see along the way--a historic building, a beautiful tree, flora, fauna, a friend’s house, a local coffeeshop, your favorite view. Maybe even take your sketchbook with you!

"Liberty Park is a large park in Salt Lake City, Utah. There is so much to see and do at the park from bird watching to playing tennis to having a fun family picnic. I enjoy walking here while doing some bird watching,"

Christmas for Santa

Twitter Art Exhibit 2017, benefiting Molly Olly's Charity

May 18, 2017 | News
The Twitter Art Exhibition originated in Norway by David Sandum in order to fundraise books through art for children after reading that the Moss children’s library were having cuts. As a keen user of Twitter, he contacted artists across social media in order to encourage donations of original postcard sized artwork. He aimed for 140 postcards due to number of characters in a Tweet and it was well exceed with 260 cards. Each exhibition is held in a different city and all the funds will go towards the chosen charity. Past exhibitions have taken place in Norway, New York and Los Angeles.
For the first time the Twitter Art Exhibition came to the UK and Molly Olly’s Wishes was the chosen charity this year, the exhibition will be held in Australia next year. We received over 1000 artwork from over 65 countries around the world who have submitted original postcard sized artwork that will be for sale at £30 each or 4 for £100. The Art Exhibition took place in the ArtsHouse in Stratford Upon Avon from April 1st – 19th. In support of the event and the charity customers came as far as Boston and Texas during the opening evening of the Twitter Art Exhibition. The remaining original artwork is available at our online store.
