Vintage Cartographic Illustrator Needed – Luxury Airbnb Wall Art (Colorado River Map)
I'm looking for a talented illustrator/cartographer to create a premium vintage-style wall map. This is not a fantasy map and not an AI-generated image. I want a professionally illustrated map based on actual geography. The finished piece should feel like something you would purchase in a National Park visitor center or boutique gallery. Geographic Accuracy I will provide a Google Maps satellite image covering the area from Laughlin, Nevada to Lake Havasu City, Arizona. The artwork should accurately follow this geography, including: Colorado River Lake Havasu shoreline Highway 95 Interstate 40 Oatman Road Mountain ranges The river and shoreline should closely match the reference rather than being artistically reinterpreted. Style Looking for something inspired by: WPA National Park posters Historic engraved atlas maps Vintage USGS relief maps Antique cartography Not watercolor. Not fantasy. Not painterly AI art. Colors Rich parchment background Engraved mountain relief Warm browns Burnt sienna Muted sage agricultural fields Deep engraved blue river Overall tone should be rich, warm, and premium. Labels Only include: Laughlin Bullhead City Fort Mohave Mohave Valley Needles Oatman Topock Lake Havasu Road labels: Highway 95 Interstate 40 Property Marker A small gold star should mark my Airbnb location. Text: ⭐ Route 66 River House I will provide the exact location. Title THE COLORADO RIVER Subtitle: Laughlin to Lake Havasu Include navigation star Classic engraved serif typography. Final Artwork One master artwork 20" × 60" 300 DPI 6000 × 18000 pixels Triptych After the master artwork is approved: Slice into three aligned panels: 16" × 20" No overlap. Panels should continue seamlessly. I will be printing this on canvas
