These personalized children illustrations were gifts for my two beautiful nephews. The idea behind each of these illustrations was to have something youthful, yet will retain it’s “awesomeness” for many years, so they are not taking them down by the time they are 10. Cillian is obsessed with dinosaur’s, so I came up with the idea of making his name the trees that the t-rex is running out of. Rhys is a little baby, and I always wanted to draw owls as characters (not because they are so hot right now). I made his name look like it was carved out of the tree. These ended up turning out great in print, even though I never took photos of the final product. I printed it, custom cut the matte and framed it. If you’re thinking of a personalized gift for your child, think about a fun, artsy illustration with your kids favourite animal..or superhero. 🙂
