The “Ocean Avenue – the heart of Carmel by the sea” illustrative map is a tribute to one of California’s most celebrated downtowns.

Officially incorporated in 1916, Carmel has long exerted a magnetic pull on artists and authors. Today Carmel Village is home to nearly 100 art galleries, and some of its earliest residents included writers Mary Austin, Sinclair Lewis, and Jack London, who fled post-earthquake San Francisco for the enclave’s bohemian appeal.

I am excited to include the Ocean Avenue, Carmel, in a portfolio of California cities and regions I have illustrated over the last 20 years.

The tradition of naming homes endures in Carmel, where garden cottages that look plucked from the Brothers Grimm sit next to Mediterranean estates and modern ranches.

Ocean Avenue is downtown Carmel’s main street, sloping from the highway down to the beach, with many shops, coffee houses, and galleries. Carmel shopping is metropolitan style, though wholly unique in setting. It is also an all-day experience, and then some.

“Mr. Scudder’s posters have been collected by buyers from around the globe, a reflection of his keen eye and commitment to the regions that he illustrates. His unique vantage point captures the insider’s view of the communities he portrays. When completed he has captured the spirit of a place for thousands of viewers to enjoy.”  Benjamin Taylor, Painter/Educator
