Custom Illustration - Pretty Darn Spectactular

Today I'd like to feature an uber talented young lady who I have featured before but who deserves yet another mention - Lauren from tasteslikelove. Lauren completed a picture of my twin sis and her partner in preparation for the birth of their baby girl. Pop over here to check out that post and picture. 

She surprised me with an awesome custom illustration of the husband and I. If you are looking for a unique gift or perhaps artwork for your house, don't hesitate to contact Lauren. She really goes out of her way to make sure you are satisfied. I love the detail she adds in to her illustrations and the effort she puts in to get the correct shades for hair, eye and skin colour. I think I look pretty spunky - wish my teeth were that white and my skin was that clear!

The image she used ...

What are you waiting for huh? Go visit her STAT!

Blogger shout out - Lauren's Custom Illustrations

Today's post goes out to the awesome and oh-so-talented Lauren from tastes like love.

A couple of months ago I contacted Lauren to commission a picture of my twin sis and her partner for a surprise baby shower gift. Given that I only gave Lauren a couple of weeks lead time I was not surprised (nor disappointed) that it was not ready in time for the shower. I'm glad we didn't rush through the process and what has resulted is a very accurate and detailed interpretation of Ness and Brad. Lauren was so attentive and patient and was happy to make changes (however little) to satisfy me and I couldn't be more pleased. 

Mila (my gorgeous new niece) is now two weeks old. I was both excited and nervous to hear Ness and Brad's reaction to the gift after my dad delivered it to Brisbane. I didn't need to be worried - Ness instagrammed the pic not long after receiving it with the comment 'awesome gift, thx @peta_ballerina. 

I'd recommend you consider getting Lauren to create a picture of you or your loved ones. The effort that goes in to creating the picture far outweighs the cost, and what a unique and personalised (and some would say quriky) gift it is.

(she is doing one of the husband and I at the moment!)
