A few starting points
Small details.
Personal meaning.
Start with the subject that matters to you. These illustrations suggest possible styles; they aren't photographs of finished commissions or examples of customer orders.
02 / MEANINGFUL PLACES
A place to remember
A home, a familiar doorway or a place with a story. We agree how much detail suits the style and your budget.
03 / THOUGHTFUL GIFTS
A little something personal
Botanical line art, a meaningful motif or a simple gift idea. Names or short wording can be discussed in your brief.

From idea to artwork
Tell us the story.
We'll start with a sketch.
Share your idea
Tell David the subject, who it's for and any occasion or date you have in mind. You don't need a technical or artistic brief.
Agree the details
We confirm the style, format, price, timing and payment arrangements. If a reference photo is needed, we'll agree how to send it.
Review a preview
Mandy assists with the design and David reviews it. You see a preview and can request one round of small adjustments within the brief.
Approve and finish
Once you're happy with the design, we finish and deliver it in the agreed format. Physical fulfilment is approved by David.
Before your commission
Good to know.
What does “from £35 per drawing” include?
The starting price covers a simple, single-subject line drawing: an agreed brief, a design developed with Mandy and reviewed by David, one preview and one round of small adjustments. The final format and any material or delivery costs are confirmed in your quote. Complex subjects, extra subjects, framing and postage may cost more.
Is the artwork made with AI?
Yes. Mandy uses AI assistance to help develop the artwork. David reviews the design, works through your brief with you and approves any physical fulfilment. This is AI-assisted artwork, not a promise of entirely hand-drawn portraiture.
Will I receive a physical drawing or a digital file?
We agree this before you order. Tell David what you have in mind and we'll confirm available formats, size, materials, delivery and the total price. There is no automatic checkout or printing from this page.
Can you work from a photograph?
We can discuss a reference photo as part of your brief. Please use only photographs you own or have permission to use, with the consent of anyone pictured where needed. Start by describing the idea; David will agree how to receive any reference material.
Can I request changes?
One round of small adjustments within the agreed brief is included. A different subject, a new style or further revisions may require a separate quote. We discuss any extra cost before doing additional work.
How long will it take?
Timing depends on the design, format and current availability. Tell us about any birthday or other deadline at the start. We confirm a realistic schedule before you commit; please don't assume next-day or guaranteed-date delivery.
Can I use the drawing for my business?
Tell David if you want artwork for branding, merchandise or another commercial use. Usage rights and any third-party restrictions need to be agreed in writing before work starts. We don't promise exclusive rights or copy another artist's work.
Do I need access to Mandy's private studio?
No. This page is open for commission enquiries, and David handles the brief, quote and review with you. The interactive Mandy studio remains invite-only.
Let's make it personal
What would you
like Mandy to draw?
Tell David your idea, the format you're hoping for and any date you have in mind. We'll confirm what's possible and give you a clear quote, with drawings starting from £35.
This is an enquiry, not a purchase. Your quote, payment arrangements and commission terms are agreed before work begins.
