Olivier Kugler Travel Art

A little while ago, I came across illustrations by Olivier Kugler, an artist living in London. The illustrations were made in the artist's travels, and some of them include portraits. Text is used in some of the illustrations to narrate it, and the artist often includes relevant maps and diagrams along with the illustrations.

The images created are inspired by places that the artist has visited in travels, including America's "Waffle House" diner. More recently, he created a map for the royal wedding in 2011. He also illustrates portraits of individuals around the world.

I like the idea of an illustration journal. Instead of written travel journals, provide illustrations during your travel with some narrative, or simply illustrate a nice image.
