For the multiple people that suggested using a receipt printer. Not perfect, but readable! Will be a fun challenge designing a new map that works within the limitations.

Here's another ribbon map of a river; this time designed specifically for a receipt printer. Perhaps the most unnecessary thing I've ever made.

This is a "map" I drew of Taughannock Gorge in upstate NY. I designed it specifically with a risograph machine in mind, and printed it out at a community print space here in town. Excited to try some other ideas there.

Happy Halloween. Here's a map I did several years ago of cemeteries and graveyards within Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Fun fact: the difference between a cemetery and a graveyard is that the latter is typically associated with a church.

This animation I made for a recent project shows the changes in ice extent over North America since the last glacial maximum (roughly 18k years). Each frame was hand-drawn using Procreate.
