The Idea

December 2022

I spent the holidays of 2022 searching the internet for something to track my zoo travels. I have a scratch-off world map hanging in my room, that's where the inspiration started.

Talking About It

January 2023

I began talking about my idea out loud to people, this was my market research. I also process my thoughts out loud, which helps me plan and make sense of everything. 

Artwork and Concepts

February 2023- October 2023

I began taking my vision and putting it on paper, I was going to have a friend make all my artwork digital, but when that wasn't going to plan I invested in an iPad. I did all the artwork myself and hired a publisher to help me put it all together.


2023-2024

Bringing It Together

October 2023- Decemer 2023

I worked with the publisher to put my dream on paper and work out the details of the project. He helped me find printers and acted as a liaison for me.
