Customized Map of Colorado

I am currently working on a new brochure in Vail Colorado. This brochure is for Eagle County School's. It is a new brochure for the marketing director to use in forums in which to recruit teachers to the Vail valley. The requirement was to make it a "fun" Colorado map that indicated how diverse Colorado is. The brochure also needed to show the relationship of Eagle County to its more well known city of Denver. It was also required to show the towns in Vail valley as well as school locations. I opted to do a pen and ink illustration and then added color by using watercolor design. Illustration design is a unique way to get an idea across visually. These paintings need to get a lot of information across quickly, yet be appealing. It was a fun challenge.Visit my website for more illustration samples at: www.heidisdesignworks.com
