Dina Ruzha uses her map skills to create an illustration for the front cover of Dallas Observer Magazine.
The illustrated map showcases Dallas' best places to eat - the Hidden Gems.
Using a vibrant colour palette for an attention-grabbing front cover, accentuated by bold, black-lined gem icons to showcase the diverse cuisine, Dina's piece spotlights Dallas' best-kept culinary secrets – those charming hole-in-the-wall joints offering delectable ethnic foods.
I was tasked with creating illustrated Elizabeth line map for the cool new community living project @andsoulcommunity in West London.
This project was executed under the creative direction of Jasmine Fisher, known as @jasminefisherltd. The illustration would be shown on the company's website.

Fluid line illustrations are produced by Dina Ruzha for Leonie Swann's latest novel.
Commissioned by Soho Press, Dina crafted 27 interior illustrations for the mystery novel which follows a quirky group of seniors who attempt to solve one murder while covering up another.

Dina Ruzha illustrates a culinary feature for January's Phoenix Magazine.
The magazine talks of how one can dine in all the US states without leaving the metropolitan area of Phoenix, so if you're a homesick Texan, you'll be able to find a chicken fried steak, or maybe you’re a Delawarean looking for a Thanksgiving sandwich.
Dina's task was to create fifty black and white food illustrations to each represent a state, with clear and bold lines for a fun, graphic map.
