Every single one of the fifty states in the United States of America is special in its way. Go to Florida and you will come across some beautiful beaches and vast swamplands and marshes. Travel up to Illinois to see some wide open prairie and farm spaces to the south with the city of Chicago to the northeast. Move out to Nevada and see the mountains around Lake Tahoe, the intriguing desert spots and the tourist hub of Las Vegas to the south.

No matter where you go, you will come across something that makes a state unique. Whether it’s one of the many lakes in Minnesota or the canyons of Arizona, you will find something that you will not easily spot in other parts of the country.

It is with all of this in mind that we have created modern art-inspired state map art prints that illustrate everything that makes these states so popular. Each state pride map or wall art print displays more than just the outline of a state. It also adds a few special accounts that make your print unlike anything else you could display in your home or office.

These prints are brilliant gifts for people who live in certain places or have close ties to those spots. Each print makes for a wonderful gift whether it entails celebrating a state one was born in, where someone went to school at, where a marriage took place at or even where someone in the military might have been stationed in. The fine look that comes with each art print will remind you of a wonderful time in the state or a special memory that you will always associate that state with.

Carefully Organized Outlines

It is interesting as to how each state has a special outline. Some states are formed based on geographic barriers. Notice that many states in the west like Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming feature straight lines forming their borders.

Others are built off of large bodies of water. See how the Ohio River and Lake Erie make up the southern and northern ends of Ohio. Regardless of how a state’s borders are formed, we proudly highlight every part of a state by using the best possible outlines all the way through.

Each state map includes a black printout of a state with its entire outline illustrated. Every individual part of a state is highlighted. Whether it’s a perfectly symmetrical state like Colorado or a state with an irregular look like Maryland or West Virginia, we incorporate every detail into each print we sell.

Look at our North Carolina map design, for example. This includes not only the state’s mainland but also the small islands on the eastern end that make up the Outer Banks.

Meanwhile, our Hawaii map displays every single island that makes up the state from the massive islands of Oahu, Kauai, and Maui to the smaller Niihau and Kahoolawe islands. We focus on incorporating every aspect of a state into our designs regardless of how small they might be. Besides, there is always a particular spot in a state that might hold a special meaning to someone.

Road Maps Are Popular

Some of our most popular state map art pieces are road maps. With this, a state’s outline is accentuated with many lines moving from one end of the state to the next. Each line highlights one of the main roads within the state.

Some of the lines represent major highways and are a little thicker than others. Others incorporate major bodies of water that move through the state or even lakes situated in the middle.

For instance, take a peek at our New Mexico map. You will notice many roads moving into the city of Albuquerque. The city has the brighter appearance as more roads converge upon the spot. Look closely and you will see how detailed the city’s roads are. Meanwhile, many other highways and other major roads will head out to Santa Fe, Roswell, and Las Cruces among other vital cities.

Vital bodies of water will stand out on any of these road map prints. Look as the Great Salt Lake dominates Utah with Salt Lake City highlighted not too far off of it. See the Missouri River as it moves through South Dakota while various small lakes highlight the eastern end of the state. Even the many lakes that Minnesota is famous for can be found throughout its entire print design.

These road map prints will remind you of many specific spots in each state. Whether it entails a fine lakeside spot, some small town you might have lived in or even a massive city you visited in the past, you are bound to find something attractive to display and highlight in your office or home.

Home Prints

Some states are more important to people than others. They are states that people might call home. Whether it is where one is currently living or where someone is originally from, everyone has a special place that they know is their true home.

We have many home-themed prints available for sale among our other state map art designs. Each print includes a full outline of a state with the word “home” printed at some point on the outline. The word will appear in a corner spot to add to the personal feeling. It is a basic message, and yet it means the world to anyone.

This simple message shows that there’s a great part of this country that you might respect as your home. It conveys the emotion and love that you have for a certain state. Every state in the country is a home for someone.

Each of these home-themed prints has a slightly weathered look to its body. You will notice a slate-like look with a few light spots around a predominantly black body. This makes it look as though the state has a chalkboard-like look to it. But more importantly, these accents create a special appearance that highlights how special and unique a state may be to you.
