– The price depends on the size of paper, and how many people (adults, kids) and animals, and the background of the drawing. If you are interested, please send photos you want me to draw and I can give you a quote.
What size of paper do you offer?
– A5 and A4, On special situation like a big extended family portraits, I can also do A3 size.
What’s the turn around time?
– Generally around 2 weeks. But if you need it as a list minute gift/ card,… let me know and I can try to prioritise your drawing.
All my photos are selfies!! #mumlife! Or I dont have a ‘nice photo’ where everyone is looking at the camera/ Not everyone I want are in the same photo. Can I still get a drawing done?
– YES! The beauty of an illustration is that we can add/ exclude anything from the photo. I can work from a few different photos as reference. Just le me know what details you want to include in the drawing.
Additional Note/ Reminder
– I am using watercolour as my medium. So naturally, some colour will bleed. Sometimes I do this intentionally, to give a sense of loose colour. This is my style of drawing.
– I do a simple illustration, loosely based on the photos you provided. So they may not look exactly like the actual photos.
Please feel free to provide as much information and references. I am happy to do minor adjustments to the drawings when they are done but I won’t be able to change the drawing if you suddenly change your mind or just remembered certain crucial information which you failed to tell me before I started the drawing.
Melissa was really responsive from the initial enquiry and also checked in regularly about the specific details of each doodle as she drew them - a gesture which meant so much to me. The end result was amazing and really captured the emotion from the original photos. Melissa is so talented and I definitely would recommend her!

I reached out to Melissa for a family portrait for Father’s Day. I was able to supply multiple photos to put together a gorgeous drawing that is LOVED by my partner. I look forward to getting Melissa to do many more in the future. Great communication and it was ready very quickly
