Some of my most favorite digital art projects from 2020 to now.

Fantasy Map

A fake map that I created inspired by the places Taylor Swift sings about in her first 9 albums, some are real places relevant to her career (i.e. Bluebird Cafe), and some are totally made up from her lyrics (i.e. The Night Train).

I came up with the idea after watching her music video for Bejeweled. The very end of the video is a shot of a castle that pans out to reveal a forest surrounding it. There in the corner is a tiny building that I had seen fans speculating was meant to represent the Long Pond Studios where she recorded an acoustic session of folklore with Aaron Dessner and Jack Antonoff. It got me thinking about how many easter eggs Taylor likes to hide in her videos, and how everything she does seems to be connected.

The idea of a map that shows all of those little places shown together immediately came to me. A few days later I posted the idea on TikTok and asked for help filling it out. I used the thousands of comments I was getting to complete the map and have it up for sale within a few weeks.

It is my most successful project to date.

Reimagined Tour Posters

I wanted this poster to be more of an art piece than a representation of The Eras Tour. I had the idea of drawing the state flower for each state Taylor was playing in, and making sure the number of flowers in that cluster matched the number of shows she was playing.

For example, she played 3 shows in New Jersey, 5/26-5/28, and so that plant got 3 flowers.
