Travel illustrations for Government of Madrid

Client: Government of the Community of Madrid, Spain.
Project: Advertising campaign to promote the city on social media.

Commission from Madrid's Culture and Tourism Office to create two sets of illustrations for their initiative to boost tourism in the villages with a population of less than 20.000 residents and limited touristic resources; and also to the city landmarks declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO.

To achieve that I created two illustrated maps that served a starting point in each set, and one full illustration for each particular village or landmark. A total of 18 illustrations were created and published in the social media accounts of the Culture and Tourism Office during the months of July and August 2022.
