Illustration Friday: Treasure

This week's prompt on Illustration Friday was 'Treasure'.

I went though a few ideas for this one. Originally I was planning on drawing a "treasure chest of fairytales", with various fairytale objects (glass slippers, pumpkins, flowers etc) spilling out of a treasure chest. But then I had the idea to do a treasure map. I illustrated a map as part of my Final Major Project at University last year, and at the time I was really pleased with and it was something I wanted to do more of. But up until now that has been the only map I've illustrated, so I took the opportunity to do it for this week's Illustration Friday.

I've designed it as a fairytale treasure map, so all the locations are places from various fairytales, such as the woods from Little Red Riding Hood, and the tower where Rapunzel is kept.

Here's a few close-ups of the different locations:
