A line drawing of your family
A line drawing of your family is a family portrait consisting only of fine lines, based on your own photo. The background disappears and the faces are not detailed. You mainly recognize each other by the hairstyle, posture, and the way you stand together.
It works for your family of four, but also for a line drawing of the whole family with grandpa and grandma included. Add your family name or your own text and you have a calm, modern artwork for the wall.
For what occasion do you give a family illustration as a gift?
A family portrait drawing or personalized family poster is popular as a gift for Mother's Day, Father's Day, anniversary, birthday, birth, housewarming, or Christmas. But also as a photo to drawing gift without occasion: something lasting for the wall that touches the whole family. A drawn family poster also works beautifully as a wedding gift or wedding illustration for the newlywed couple.
