If you’re in SE London and looking for local-ish things to do this Saturday - head over to the Hither Green Festival...

Delighted to be popping up alongside a host of fellow Artists + Crafters, street food, music and family-friendly fun at the Hither Green Festival this Saturday 16 May - 11-6pm - with Me On The Map - my personalised street and area maps of Blackheath, SE London and beyond.

Take a look at my map to see where it’s all happening - Hither Green Clocktower 🙂

Over the last 8 years I’ve drawn 1000s of roads - and have covered most of South/ South East London. From Battersea and Clapham in the west, to Abbey Wood in the East, and everywhere in between.

At some point I’ll do a series on street names, as I’ve discovered different road themes - ranging from herbs and spices themed names to roads named after British 0lympic athletes from the 80s and 90s (like Daley Thompson Way)

In the meantime, here is a selection of portrait street map examples - that cover different areas. They can be personalised to highlight where you live (or used to live) 🤩

Thanks to for hosting their quiz night fundraiser last week. Super (tricky!) quiz and great venue - (the food there is delish 😋) - hopefully lots of vital funds raised on the night.

To top off the evening - we won! 🥳 Thanks too to Jo, who picked my street map of Lewisham as her raffle prize. There was a superb wide selection of prizes from local businesses all given to help support the Foodbank and its vital work.

Roll on the autumn - where we’ll attempt to regain our crown at the next fundraiser.

Always a pleasure to pop up at North Cross Road market with my map artwork of East Dulwich and beyond - there’s a super vibe and a great selection of stalls, traders, alongside the shops and eateries.

Whether you’re a regular or occasional to the market, where’s your fave go-to spot?

(I’ll be there tomorrow neatly sandwiched between Route 66 burritos and the Biltong stall :) )

It’s always a pleasure to create a map gift that’s extra special. A group of friends clubbed together to commission a bespoke map for avid Eagles fan Dave, mark a big birthday. They requested the Crystal Palace FC have some extra touches added, including a marker pinpointing where he lives and a title for the map commemorating his 60th. Happy birthday Dave!

There are many ways my maps can be personalised to make them extra special - from creating a bespoke area (based on what I’ve already mapped) using different colours, or adding details and markers. Get in touch if you’ve got a map of memories to create!

📍 EXHIBITION LAUNCH — Me On The Map x BOULDR BAR! 🎉

We’re so excited to be hosting an exhibition with the incredible right here at Bouldr Bar! 🫟✨ A beautiful selection of Mark’s typographic map prints now looks right at home on our walls — and we’re thrilled to share them with you.

Every map is crafted with care from hand drawn lettering and printed on archival 300gsm paper, making them as timeless as the places they depict. 

What we love most about Mark’s work is how much his ethos aligns with our own — championing community, celebrating local identity, and showcasing all the corners of the city that make our area special. 🖤
