These prints from Wrenay Gomez Charlton’s Urban Legends collection are cute and quirky.
The collection features maps of a particular city or state with its native animal silhouetted atop it. From a Chicago deer to a Berkeley moth, these bold, colored animals offer a new twist to mapping. Not only do buyers learn a little geography, but they also become aware of the dangers of an urban environment. However, this awareness is subtle and done in a completely adorable and artistic way. These digital collages can also be customized to your own hometowns and animals, making them just the right amount of personalized kitschy-cool.
Add a cute look to any wall in your house with the Urban Legends collection.
