Watercolour Line Hobby Portrait – Custom Hand Drawn Illustration Gift

A unique keepsake capturing sports, pastimes, or special locations in elegant artistic detail. We can draw any sport or hobby e.g.: fishing, golf, cycling, football, sailing, skiing etc, sporting achievements like marathons or a favourite locations like a golf course or cycling route. A great keepsake to remember what you love!

Drawn in a freehand flowing line, the black and white portrait is then coloured with watercolour brushes to pick out a few highlight colours. This is our artistic interpretation of your photograph rather than a detailed drawing, we exclude details of the face so is not suitable for photographs where the person's face is fully shown. The poses that work best are natural looking moments, rather than smiling directly at the viewer - so looking down, to the side or from behind. For more detailed drawings of faces - see our other listings.

How do I send my photo? Once you have placed your order we will send you a link to upload your image.

What do you draw? We sketch from the perspective in the photograph and don't include any background details unless selected in the dropdown. If selected, the focus is on the figures and the background is left sketchy. The illustration is coloured and digitally printed.

Can I check what you’ve drawn? Yes - we’ll upload a proof via a customer enquiry for you to check and make any changes to. We offer up to 3 amends to your original drawing. For further changes there will be an additional charge.
