About the art :
In a time without cameras, TV or even a newspaper, artists were present on early voyages to the new world to chronicle what they discovered. Cartographers are map makers, both today and in history. In the 16th and 17th centuries they where much respected, spending many hours creating very detailed drawings of images and likenesses they would work into their maps.
The images of seaman and life in the new world were the only way for Kings and Queens along with anyone else, to see what it may have looked like.
This lost art has been captured by this artist for your enjoyment. Much of my art is done as if I were bringing it back to show those not present what I have seen in my travels, as was done by historical artists long ago.
