About Town SOMA

Portraits of South Orange & Maplewood Small businesses

In October of 2024 I put out a book of my illustrations of coffeeshops, cafes, florists, toy stores, art stores, pools, community bands, dive bars, gazebos - everything local to Maplewood & South Orange New Jersey.

These places are the threads that weave the fabric of our towns. Whether you’re a lifetime resident or you just moved here, this book is full of memories.

Prints of every shop I’ve ever done available here.

That’s more than 100 different places. Want me to draw your business? Contact me.

The Maplewood Map

I can’t even begin to tell you how excited I was to work on this project! The Maplewood Village Alliance reached out to me to create this map for 2024, and I spent two months in the fall propping myself up all over town to draw it. One person bought me a cupcake. One person interviewed me for a school project. A whole lot of people stopped & chatted for a while. One person told me about this 1910 illustrated map of Maplewood that some guy hired a hot ballon for (this is what I will do for 2025. Donate here [1]). The version inside the Holiday issue of Matters Magazine labels all 90+ businesses (only a fraction of whom I’ve illustrated so far!) This is a snapshot in time, and I’m honored to have worked on it.
