Capture the charm of your boat with a bespoke, hand-drawn watercolour illustration. Based on your photograph, our talented artists in Devon create beautiful, personalised sketches in a signature sketchy style, enhanced with painterly watercolour colouring.

We can illustrate a variety of boats, from yachts and sailing boats to speedboats, catamarans, and canal boats! Simply provide a photo or weblink, and we'll draw your boat in situ, including any visible dock, surrounding boats, or background elements.

What We Offer:

People: By default, we include people shown on the boat in your original photo. If you prefer to exclude people, let us know in the order notes. Note that we cannot add people who are not in the original image.

Personalisation: Add your chosen words to the artwork, or leave it blank for an image-only option.

Background: We work directly from your photograph, capturing the perspective, sea, sky, and landscape visible in the image. If your photo doesn’t feature a water scene, we won’t add one.

How to Send Your Photo
Upload your photo with the 'Upload Your Photo' option during your order.

Proofs and Edits
Want to review your illustration? Simply select 'Yes' to a digital proof in the order form, and we’ll email a proof for you to check. You can request up to three amendments to the original drawing free of charge. Additional changes may incur an extra fee.
