A closer look

Contour Waves

Terrain banded into ribbons. Alternating ink and cream turn each mountain into an abstract fold — nothing invented, just the shape of the ground.

Copernicus GLO-90 elevation, contoured and banded. Nothing added, nothing smoothed away.

How these are made

  • Drawn from survey data

    NOAA and GMRT bathymetric grids, Copernicus and USGS elevation models, the HydroSHEDS river network. Each print names its source, so you can check the ground against the drawing.

  • Archival giclée

    200gsm enhanced matte fine-art paper, archival pigment inks, printed to order at the facility nearest you — a US press for US orders, a UK press for UK ones.

  • One region, properly

    This shop is the Pacific Northwest and nothing else: the Cascade volcanoes, the Olympics, the Salish Sea, the Columbia. Places worth knowing in detail.
