I found I still had a couple of the process pic videos for some of my aerial embroideries! Here's one of them - 'The land is a patchwork rainbow', 2023, which was inspired by Dutch tulip fields. This embroidery landscape was so fun to create! 🌈🌷🌸 #art

If you want to read “Why I Love the Vermont Green,” I’ve taken pictures of the little zine for you. Of course it’s nicer if you can hold it in your hands. But here’s the zine in full (1/2) #WILtVG

Nothing like a nice long flight for catching up on #30DayMapChallenge 🤪. Here's Day 8 — urban — right on time. A map of Paris buildings by age of construction. A real beauty if I do say so myself. 😍

You'll hear me screaming much more about this book in a month or so, but for now I've made a little portfolio update to add a thing on the soon-to-be-published Cincinnati in 50 Maps, which you can and should pre-order now. andywoodruff.com/posts/2025/c...

Budget cuts come for us all. My contract with Amtrak is not being renewed and it's up tomorrow. I'll have more time to work on the Map Center but until it's fully off the ground, I'm a GIS analyst with 12 years of experience in ESRI, open source, education and cartography. #gigeconomy #opentowork

Seems like not the greatest of prizes to be winning.

Bless you for the wonder and stability, ESA. Thanks for keeping the lights on.

So, I'm sorry bros, but if you want folks to stop calling it 'mansplaining' and saying that basically only men do it, you either need to build a pipeline to produce a generation of arrogant, hubristic female commenters or - and this would be my preference - stop doing it.
