I was a little hesitant to have a post on women cartographers. On one hand today is International Women's Day. On the other hand, with so many more women in cartography these days it seems kind of unfair to lump them all together as if they all think (and map) the same. On the other, other hand (3 hands?) I do not feature works by women here as often as I should.
In a previous post, I featured the Women in Cartography exhibit at the Norman Leventhal Map Center. That post covered some major contributors to the field such as Marie Tharp as well as the history of somewhat anonymous women producing maps. For today I want to enjoy posting a few more recent maps.

Goddesses of Venus by Eleanor Lutz - see my previous post for her Mars map.

I also like her Candy Map style. Here is Candy Berlin.
