Hand-drawn Brisbane city map wallpaper mural featuring Brisbane River in charcoal
"I LEFT MY HEART IN BRISBANE" - A modern map wallpaper mural featuring the meandering Brisbane River and inner city roads, to transform your space through joy, connection and conversation.
 
This mural artwork is hand drawn and hand painted by me - Australian artist Kylie Harber. I draw every road and river by hand, on my iPad, to create a beautiful modern city map. Then, I paint a colourful watercolour background, scan at high resolution and merge with my digital linework. All of my city map prints in the {I left my heart} collection take between 25 - 60 hours from concept to completion.
 
I print these artworks on the most exquisite matte wallpaper for you to enjoy in your space!
 
My map wallpaper murals are perfect for offices and homes. This stunning artwork will be the talking point of any room, connecting you to the city you left your heart.

    MY STORY

    My name is Kylie and I leave my heart in all the cities and places I travel to.

    So I draw them, print them and hang them on my wall, to remember the best moments of my life.

    I have permanently itchy feet. If you experience this too, you know how important it is to always be planning the next adventure!

     

    My very first overseas trip was to Thailand, Burma and Laos in 2005, at the age of 21. Then a 5 week trip to Europe in 2007.

    ​

    In 2010, I travelled to the USA for the first time. I spent a week in San Francisco and felt like my soul was 'home'. When I returned home to Brisbane, I started hunting for the perfect art print of the city I missed so desperately. I couldn't find what I was looking for, so I decided to create my own.

     

    It took me around 25-30 hours to draw all the streets. I carefully traced screenshots of google maps in Adobe Illustrator, playing with line weights, colours and positioning of the text. I printed it on fine art paper in vibrant yellow (the colour I associated with San Fran), and had it professionally framed. 

     

    I haven't stopped drawing line art ever since!

    ​

    I also draw places I dream of going, and I am grateful for the commissions I am engaged for, to draw the places YOU left your heart.
