Description
This self-paced Watercolor Illustrated Maps 101 eCourse will teach you how to make an eye-catching artistic map of Paris, France! You can then use the knowledge you gain in this course to make maps for pleasure, take commissions, or sell your creations.
Prerequisites
In order to create this map, I recommend:
- Basic knowledge of how to use a dip pen (learn here)
- Knowledge of how to use a program that will allow you to re-size images, like Photoshop or Microsoft Word
Necessary Supplies
You’ll need a few basic supplies in order to create this map. They are: watercolor paper, a pencil, Photoshop (or other software), printer, light box (optional), a dip pen + ink, and watercolors. See this document from the course PDF for details!
Note that you do not need extensive knowledge of how to create illustrations in order to take the course. I’ll teach you how to use a shortcut tracing technique in order to draw accurate landmarks! I’ll also walk you through how to use watercolors, including blending and shading techniques.

Julie Brooks –
This was a wonderful course. I would recommend to anyone that would want to make a map for any occasion. I created a map of my hometown for my children, who are now adults, to show the popular places we would go to when visiting. The ice cream shop, the pizza place and a favorite restaurant to include a few. I even included their grandparent’s homes. We have a famous bridge that was the center illustration. The course is easy to follow.

Lindsey’s watercolour illustrated map ecourse was wonderful!!! I had visited Paris and so I enjoyed her vista of the city.
I learnt so much in the course, as Lindsey is a very patient and inspiring teacher. She has little tricks and helpful hints to enable you to achieve the outcome which you set yourself upon.
I chose to do my birthplace town to be able to share with family members….. however, it’s still not completed due to different schedules and events.
I’m encouraged to set myself a time frame and achieve this goal.
One of the wonderful things about Lindsey’s courses is that you can go back over them and be helped again by Lindsey as you work through each stage…… and if you have questions second or third around Lindsey is still available to help with support.
Thanks LindseyRated 5 out of 5 based on 54 customer ratings

This was such a great course!
Lindsey is a very understandable teacher, it’s full of really good techniques, design tips and color theory. Since taking this course I have made several friendship maps. Highlighting the fun things my friends and I have shared. It really inspired me to play with the concept of maps. I recommend this class to anyone who wants a good experience with watercolors and inks right off the bat.
