My next fantasy novel, Curse Painter, launches on Friday, October 9th. It begins a new fantasy series called Art Mages of Lure. Today, I’d like to share the map I created for the series!
As always, I drew the map by hand, scanned it, and added the text with Gimp. This time, I also added a canvas effect to match the art theme of the book. I typically update my maps with new locations as new books come out. You’ll notice the most detail in the northeastern region of this map as that’s where the action happens in Curse Painter. Here’s what it’s all about:
Art is magic. Art is a curse.
Briar can curse with the flick of a paintbrush. Her paintings maim, bewitch, and—most effectively of all—destroy. But Briar doesn’t want to hurt people anymore. She has fled her family’s deadly curse business to start a new life peddling nonlethal jinxes and petty revenge.
Briar’s destructive powers catch the eye of a charismatic young outlaw called Archer, who hires her to help him save a kidnapped friend from a ruthless baron. Briar thinks this is her chance to make amends for her crimes, but the family business won’t let her go so easily.
When her violent past jeopardizes Archer’s rescue mission, Briar must confront the dark arts she left behind—and decide what she’s willing to destroy in order to be good.
You can preorder Curse Painter here, or read the first three chapters for free!
