I am very proud of the many custom creations I have been able to make! From unique birthday gifts to party invitations, from artwork for the wall to tattoos and even covers for PhDs. Below I cordially invite you to take a look at my various projects.

Babyshower gift for Ylva

Looking for a creative and original baby shower gift?
Ylva sent me a 3D ultrasound and asked if I could turn it into an artwork she and a friend could gift at a baby shower.

Of course I loved that idea — and it felt really special to create.
The mom-to-be was very happy with it!

Commission for Sanne

Turning a baby ultrasound into a piece of art? YES — let’s do it!

Earlier this year I created a custom artwork for Sanne — her sister Pien asked me at that time to turn an ultrasound into a drawing.
Now the roles are reversed, and Sanne asked me if I could make one for Pien too.

Pien loves the color yellow, so of course I worked that into the artwork.
Such a special thing to create!

Our wedding invitation

A really fun and special commission: our own wedding invitation.
When you’re an artist and you’re getting married, it’s extra nice to be able to create your own invitations.

Are you getting married soon, or do you have an event coming up where you need an invitation design?
I’d love to help you create something beautiful!

Commission for Pien

A special commission I did recently! 💖

My friend Pien asked me if I could create an original piece for her sister, who’s pregnant. She sent me a picture of her sister’s ultrasound, and I did my best to create a DOTSbyGemma-style version of the echo. 🎨

It was definitely a challenge, but I’m super happy with how it turned out! 😍
