You send me the photo, and I focus on capturing that one specific hobby or detail—like a cycle, an umbrella, or a pet—that makes the person who they are. ### How it works You send me a clear, high-quality photo, and I get to work. I don't just trace images; I focus on capturing the character and the vibe of the person. I have drawn everything from families on trips to pets and corporate teams. If you have a specific scene in mind, just let me know. ### Your art options - **Digital Files:** High-resolution JPEGs or PNGs that you can use for social media, invites, or your own printing. - **Framed Prints:** I can provide A4 or A3 matte prints with a sturdy frame and unbreakable acrylic glazing, ready to hang. - **Wooden Standees:** My favorite option for office desks. I create a die-cut, 3D-effect caricature on wood with a glossy finish. It really pops out and adds personality to any room. ### Customization and process Once you share the photo, tell me if you want the classic exaggerated cartoon style, a watercolor feel, or something semi-realistic. I aim for that fun, playful vibe that makes for a great gift. I include a round of minor tweaks, so we make sure the final result is just right before it goes to print or gets shipped to you. I handle everything from my Pune studio and can ship your physical art anywhere in India. ## About Philip Mathew Hey, I am Philip.
