A Little Direction

Rachel Austin’s Map Paintings

We know what you did this summer. (Muffled scream.)

That’s because we can see the still-unpacked suitcase in the corner, the shower full of travel-size shampoos, and the unsent postcards stashed in your purse.

Rachel Austin’s whimsical map paintings will appeal to your wanderlust. Each carefree scene depicts gliding paper airplanes, birds perched on a wire, or fields of flowers in vibrant oil paints over a colorful map.

The waxy and serene cartographic works are mounted on a boxy wood frame or fashioned into charming pendants and pocket mirrors — perfect souvenirs for a traveling companion or an indication of your adventurous spirit.

You’ll hit the road again soon.

But remember that home is where the art is.
