Austin's Atlas

June 23rd in Pease Park: come explore the intricacies of local oaks and other challenging tree species with us and @treefolks . We’ll use watercolor as a medium for documentation and as an observational tool. No experience necessary. *”Challenging” means hard to identify. Link with more info in bio.
Map to the pink grasshopper. Best executed at sunset. #handdrawnmaps
Lost Austin: A ephemeral map made of people. Each person became a place on the map that no longer exists (Electric Lounge, Cafe Amis, Hernandez Cafe, Rhizome Collective, Cafe Mundi, SVT, Blue Theater, La India, the original Tamale House, a nameless late night hamburger joint near Lamar and 6th, former homes, a dog park, to name just a few). A lovely memorial to the Off Center by the @rudemechs on the one year anniversary of its passing. #humanmaps #humangeography #demolishingaustin #buildingaustin #lostaustin
Exploring a few fun cartography books at Texas State’s geography dept. #anaglyph #cartography #geography
The future of Austin’s urban morphology is......strange. If you are a 1 story building (or even a 9 story one like #ashbelsmithhall ) with no cultural significance, you don’t stand a chance against the pressure of property values/ROI’s. I think the State Theater will survive, but it will be eventually be dwarfed in a major way by its tall new neighbor “The Avenue.”
Commute maps collected at one of our Hand-drawn Map workshops with MaptimeATX, circa 2015. #austinsatlas #handdrawnmaps

Collected these sycamore leaves from around the yard this morning. I don’t think of leaves as being as unique as snow flakes...but maybe they are? Especially after a good freeze. Do you like trees? Do you have a penchant for trees doing odd things? Consider following Austin’s Atlas recent spin off called the: @odditree_society #odditreesociety #treesofaustin
Exploring the Daly City coast.... Link to slightly larger map in bio. #austinsatlas #handdrawnmaps
