Russell Crotty



Cotty's drawing begins with direct, intimate exploration of the landscape and making on-site field notes in personal sketchbooks. The resulting observations are then translated onto globes, books or single drawings, some containing text.


Peter Arkle



'Peter Arkle News' is a self published newspaper depicting all aspects of the british born illustrators life in New York, all of these disparate elements combine to produce a feeling of the environment he inhabits. More here.

Chris Ware



Ware's work has the ability to depict public and private space/place but also the passing of time including while elements of social commentary.

Adam Dant


Dant creates dense, cartoon like drawings, often possessed of a dysfunctional semicircular logic. Mishap and folly proliferate his work. Museums are common subjects, as are maps and complicated jokes. Dant's works often take the form of wall hung drawings and have been described as Hogarthian or Swiftian especially in relation to his use of satire.
His new work continues Adam Dant's interest in depicting and interacting with the public space, the anecdotal and Utopian grand models.

Joan Hassall

Rembrandt


Rembrandt's landscape etchings, along with other dutch artist from the same period, depict space and objects within it with ease and fluidity. Though this image is fairly detailed, click on it for a larger version, his more minimal landscape work still hold the same weight.

Marc Bell



Though not directly representative or environment Bell's drawings have diagrammatic geological, archaeological qualities seemingly referring to many spaces and places at once.

Stephen Walter


This vast work imagining London as an island can be viewed in more detail here along with Walters other visually dense mapping work.
