Personalised Family Cartoon Portrait – Hand Painted Watercolour (12 × 10 Mount)
- A custom personalised family portrait illustration from photo, hand-drawn to create a unique family gift including parents, children and pets.
- From £70.00
A cheerful and characterful hand-painted family cartoon portrait, individually illustrated from your photographs and created as an original watercolour painting.
Each portrait is carefully drawn in ink and watercolour by Devon illustrator Kate Garrett, capturing the likeness and personality of every family member in a light-hearted illustrated style. The result is a warm and personal piece of artwork — far removed from digital caricatures — painted traditionally on artist’s paper.
The finished artwork is presented in a 12 × 10 inch mount, ready for framing or display.
Framing in wooden or white available too, for a ready to hang gift.

How many people can be included?
The standard layout works well for small family groups. If you have a larger family, please get in touch and I can advise.
Can pets be included?
Yes. Dogs, cats and other pets are often included and add a lovely personal touch.
What photographs should I send?
Clear photos showing each person’s face work best. A photo that shows peoples comparative heights will help me too! These do not have to be professional photographs.
Will I see the portrait before it is sent?
Yes. I will send a preview so you can confirm you are happy before dispatch.
Is it drawn by hand?
Yes. Every portrait is individually illustrated by hand rather than generated from templates.
Is this a good gift for parents or grandparents?
Yes — a personalised family portrait makes a thoughtful gift for parents or grandparents, especially when it includes children and pets. Many customers order these illustrations for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, birthdays or Christmas, as they celebrate the whole family in one picture.
Can I send the portrait directly to the recipient as a gift?
Yes. I am very happy to post your portrait directly to the recipient. It can be carefully wrapped and sent with a handwritten message so it arrives ready to give.
Can you include a message or special date?
Yes. Names, a short message, or a special date such as a wedding anniversary or family milestone can be added to the portrait if you wish.
Is this suitable as a wedding or anniversary gift?
Absolutely. A custom illustrated family portrait is a lovely gift for weddings, anniversaries or engagements, especially when it includes the couple, children or pets.
What if I am buying the portrait as a surprise?
That is very common. As long as you can provide clear photographs of each person, I can create the portrait without the recipient knowing until it arrives.
