Personalised Boat Illustration
Hand-drawn
Digital proof included
A perfect memento for every boat lover - wether its a yacht, narrow boat, speed boat or anything that floats! The drawing style is clean and contemporary with the sky and surroundings picked out in a range of colours.
Every illustration can be further personalised with a printed message. Choose from 3 typefaces (script, handwritten or a modern sans-serif). Your text will be printed on 2 lines, the top line being a slightly larger size. If you've asked for a digital proof, we will email you a pdf of your illustration to check. We offer up to 3 amends to your original drawing. For further changes there will be an additional charge.

About the illustration
Your Illustration will be hand drawn black & white sketch of the boat, not a computer generated image, so we can add/remove things you don’t want. We will sketch the view from the photograph (ie the same perspective), and don't include people. It’s a simplified drawing of the boat in black & white and we colour the sky duck-egg blue, sea darker blue etc.
Made from:
A print of a hand drawn illustration, coloured on the computer for lovely solid lines and digitally printed in a graphic, contemporary style with offset block colours on 200gsm acid free, fine grain artists paper.
Framing
Our frames are all handmade in the UK from solid wood with a 2cm wide profile- choose from 3 styles (see image thumbnail for colours). Supplied with integrated hanging hook and Pilkington glass (extra large frames are glazed with high grade UV perspex for glare reduction and safe shipping).

Digital Proof
A digital proof is like a sneak peek before the real thing is made. We allow you to review and make small changes before committing to print.
We send a digital proof link to the email you provide at checkout.
Drawn from your photograph
We can draw whatever building you like! Simply upload your photo to the order form above. We will draw from the perspective of your image.
If you don’t have a photo, use Google Streetview - go to Google.com, click on ‘Maps’ and enter the address. Click on the street view of the road or drag the yellow stick man onto the map.
