An Artist Who Paints on Maps

My fourth and fifth graders recently completed their self-portraits on maps.  Some of them really had a difficult time with the concept of using an alternate material and wanted to use plain, old white paper.  Well here is proof that artists are innovators and think "outside the box."  I came across this artists work while researching something else and thought my students would like to see her work.  Her blog address is www.rachelannaustin.com/custom-map-paintings.
