you can't draw so you're going to work.: Personal project a go-go

So from the whole wide world of ideas for a personal project I went for a nice geographical angle. The idea to make a series of personal postcards of places and streets using illustrative typography. I stumbled across the work of Alison Carmichael last year and she's just amazing and you should really have a look at her website.

So after many trials of writing and drawing and figuring ou just how I wanted to do this (ideas involved everything from die cutting to pegs on string) I went for the very old school chalk on a blackboard. I know photography isn't strictly to be used in the illustration module but I thought it would be a nice touch to photograph the blackboard in the environment.
