The canvas

Cartoon Couple, on your wall

Your portrait is printed on canvas and wrapped around a wooden stretcher, the picture continuing over its edges. No ornate frame, nothing to assemble: it arrives ready to hang.

The surface

A print on canvas, not oil paint: the texture of the canvas shows through the faces and the folds of fabric.

02

The edge

Gallery-wrapped: the picture carries on around the sides of the stretcher, so it needs no frame.

The story

Cartoon Couple Modern illustration · Today

Not every portrait needs to be grand. This one is playful: clean lines, bright colour, and the details that make each of you unmistakable, from the glasses to the curls.

It is an original drawing of the two of you, not in the style of any studio or character.

About this look

Where the look comes from

This look has no single painter or museum behind it. Here is how to recognise it, where it comes from and how we make yours.

Learning to see it

How to recognise it

Clean, confident outlines; expressive eyes; slightly larger heads; flat colour with simple shading; a soft pastel background. The look of a modern illustrated card or a couple's avatar, made large.

Who it suits

Young couples, friends, a first anniversary, a housewarming. It is the lightest of our styles and the easiest to live with in a bedroom or a study.

How we make yours

We draw the two of you as original characters, keeping what makes each of you recognisable: hair, beard, glasses, skin tone, the shape of a face. Your portrait is a new work, made with AI and checked by a person. It does not copy any studio, film or character.

Your portrait is an original image of the two of you. It does not copy any existing film, poster, character, photograph or studio.

Our promise

Made with care, shown honestly

    Nothing is printed until you have seen and approved the portrait.

  2. Human checked

    A person reviews every portrait for likeness and quality before printing.

  3. Honest about AI

    AI-assisted and human checked. A new work inspired by the tradition, not a hand painting.

  4. The photographs stay private

    Used only to make the portrait. Deleted within 30 days if you don't order, or 7 days after delivery if you do.
