The Purpose Of A Map Is To Bring Us Closer To The People We Love.
Some people collect souvenirs. I draw memories ... as maps.
It's artwork inspired by the places that matter.
Commercial Licensing
Commercial licensing allows businesses, designers, developers, hotels, restaurants, and other organizations to purchase permission to use Carland Cartography artwork in a commercial space or project.
Instead of purchasing a physical print, you receive a high-resolution digital file along with a license that gives you permission to reproduce the artwork for an approved commercial use.
Alternatively, if you would rather us handle the printing for you, we can do that too!

My map-based artwork transforms the geography, culture, and identity of a location into meaningful visual experiences—helping project teams celebrate place, integrate art, strengthen local identity, and create moments of human delight within the built environment. Whether you’re designing a workplace, residential development, hospitality destination, or public-facing space, artwork can become more than a finishing touch: it can be part of your project’s wellness and placemaking strategy.

Learn About LicensingMaps That Capture The Emotion of A City
I turn cities into captivating works of art that transform interiors, spark conversation, and create lasting connections to the important places in our lives.
Drawn by hand. Driven by memory.
My artwork begins with real geography, but the inspiration goes beyond streets and shorelines. Whenever possible, I visit a place to experience its light, colors, architecture, food, and community. Back in the studio, I sketch streets and landforms in pencil, then build vibrant layers with marker, colored pencil, pastels, and acrylic paint. Bold outlines bring definition to the details. Carefully scanned and digitally prepared, these mixed-media originals become richly detailed prints on paper, canvas, or metal, capturing not just where a place is, but how it feels.
More soul. Less software.
No cookie-cutter templates. No one-click designs. Just an artist, a selection of paints and pastels, and a fascination with the places that shape our lives.
Every city has a story. I draw what makes it unforgettable.

Discover the story
I’m Jennifer Carland, an artist creating bold, abstract interpretations of the places that shape who we are. My work begins with real streets, neighborhoods, and cities, then transforms them through color, line, and layers into something more emotional - a reflection of memory, identity, connection, and possibility. Each piece is a love letter to place, created for people who believe where we’ve been is part of the story of where we’re going.
I am not an AI! Everything on my site is drawn by ME, not a computer. Each piece is drawn using a combination of watercolor paint, acrylic paint, chalk pastels, alcohol marker, ink and charcoal. And sharpie :) My artwork is scanned in as a high-res file which is then used to make the prints.
If you want something made with love by a real living artist, consider purchasing from one.
