Travel & Architectural Doodles

I don’t just trace buildings; I look for the clutter, the ivy, the way the light hits a porch swing, or the specific chaos that makes a place feel like home. When we start a custom piece, I’ll ask you for the details that only you would notice—those tiny, personal markers that turn a generic facade into a living memory.

My architectural doodles are about capturing the vibe of a place rather than just the precise blueprints. Whether you want to preserve the memory of a childhood home, a favorite cafe, or that stunning hotel from your last vacation, I approach it as a narrative scene.

I focus on the lived-in details that often go unnoticed: the stack of books on a side table, the specific chair your pet loves, or the way the sunlight streams in during the afternoon. For travel spots, I highlight the architectural character—the crumbling plaster, the signage, or the local flora.

The Process

These pieces are custom narrative scenes. Because of the detail involved, I treat these as a collaborative project. We start with a sketch to get the composition right, then move into my signature ink-heavy, whimsical style.

I love adding 'Easter eggs' to these drawings—hidden details that mean something to you—to make the piece deeply personal. We will share progress updates at the sketch and color stages to ensure the final result feels exactly right.

Timeline: Since these are complex, plan for a 2-3 week turnaround. This gives me the time to layer in the patterns and personal elements that make the work unique.
