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.
