Greater Northwest Rail Original Artwork. Signed by artist Chris Robitaille.

This collaborative partnership with the Big Sky Rail Passenger Authority is a "first of its kind" for Xplorer Maps and a custom collaborative partnership we are very excited to be a part of.

The signed original artwork was rendered using the finest pen and ink brushes and finished with multiple watercolor washes layered throughout the process. From conception to completion, the artwork took approximately 3-4 months. Every line, letter, icon, and detail is drawn entirely by hand and is unique and original to this new map.

Led by Dan Bucks, there were numerous back and forth sessions with Greg and Chris Robitaille discussing and massaging the content, placement, design scale, and scope; making sure everything that was deemed essential and/or important was included wherever and whenever possible. Throughout the collaborative process, the artist's intent was to ensure that the RAIL LINES were the major focus and the supporting illustrations simply augmented the story and highlighted the regional differences bringing everyone together toward a common goal. The end result is a unique piece of art that effectively "tells the story" of the Greater Northwest Passenger Rail project and generates enthusiasm, and supports the passion of everyone involved.
