If I had to say what it is the most special gift What you could do would say a custom illustration. Experience has shown me that nobody usually expects them to give them something similar, so that they end up surprised and very excited when his eyes discover what the colored paper was hiding behind him.
What began with an emotion and the desire to give something unique, ends up becoming in a memory for life 🙂
THE STORIES BEHIND THE CUSTOM ILLUSTRATIONS
Behind every illustration there is a great story. Yours.
I started offering this service by chance two years ago. In the summer of 2015 they wrote to me asking if I did custom illustrations. At that time my world was full of greyhounds born of my imagination, with whom I was beginning to spread acute galguitis through social networks and I had not considered that possibility. As a restless and adventurous soul that I am, I couldn't resist the idea and went on an adventure with my brushes, in this case, my graphic tablet. My first clients were very satisfied and I liked the experience so much that I started offering the service.
Since then my hands have captured 150 illustrations, unique and different, but all of them with something in common: love. Love because the vast majority of commissions are gifts for a very special person and because that furry one that life gives us always appears in them.
For all of it occupy an important place in my work and I get excited like the first day when I get a new order. I love hearing your stories and helping you create that idea that you are passionate about.
BRINGING YOUR IDEA TO LIFE
To make your great idea a reality I need quality photos and the more the better. Love it capture every detail of the protagonists so that the result is as faithful to reality as possible. Therefore, do not skimp on photos that reflect those aspects that make us unique, such as that smile that melts your soul or that little spot that your furry has in its ear.
But do not think that by asking for photos the illustration will only reflect the content of a photograph. You can appear enjoying your sofa, that afternoon of hiking in the mountains, but also a good cup of tea lost in Wonderland. And is that Like the imagination, there are no limits to capture what excites you. That's the great thing about a custom illustration, you are the one who decides every detail 🙂

All the illustrations I do are digital, so that you can transfer it to the support you want: from a canvas or a T-shirt to a mobile phone case or a cake.
