Bristol, TN & VA map illustration . Tennessee Virginia watercolor painting . Love where you live home decor . Abstract map housewarming gift

Love where you live. Okay, East Tennessee and Southwest Virginia folks, this painting is for you! This abstract painting of Bristol features blues and greens with a pop of bright orangey red. It would look fantastic as part of a gallery wall.

I made this map collection because, well — I love maps! Since childhood, I’ve been enamored with them. I wanted a to create a piece of art that felt abstract but was connected to a place, a piece of art that could fit into any decor style (though these brightly colored ones do lean a bit more maximalist). Thus my journey into these maps began. Each city has its own web of roads and rivers. Each a beautiful representation of the paths we take in our comings and goings.

In which cities do you belong? Which ones hold a piece of your story and your heart? Let these prints help you tell your story.

Every intersection and bit of land and water on this map is painted by hand using watercolor paint on cold press watercolor paper. Then, it is scanned using a high resolution scanner and digitally formatted for printing. This print you will receive is reproduced from an original watercolor painting: Bristol, Tri-Cities, TN, 2019.
