I selected a section of a local OS map that looked interesing. Onto this I painted a skyline with watercolours using roads or trackways to make an interesting shape. I used watercolour to give me the transparency I needed so that you could still see the map details underneath. I then found earthworks like tumuli and ancient droveways or roman roads and marked them onto the map .Where there were woodlands or copses I painted on groups of trees and gave them shadows. This made the painting look three dimensional even though it was on a 2D map.
