A Map of the Stars & the best places to see them (Winter Sky Edition)
This is my submission for the JIGSAW JAM.
My illustrated map puzzle concept features all 17 Winter Sky constellations and 10 spectacular locations to view them. I’ve also included facts and tips to find the constellations because locating some of them can be a fun challenge! I was envisioning this design as part of a series because there’s so much to see and learn about in our night sky. This is a sample of the Winter Sky edition. There could be additional extensions including the Spring, Summer, and Fall constellations, as well as, additional dreamy locations to view them.

Salli! Thanks so much for such kind remarks - they made my day <3 Really appreciated the brainstorming session that you all coordinated. It was so helpful and got my wheels spinning. It was nice to have a group be a part of that step in the process because, for most folks, including me, it's a solo production.

Also, I see you're in Texas - and Big Bend is my top dream destination to stargaze (one day I hope!) Have you been there before?
