“I would recommend anyone thinking about getting one of Sian’s illustrations to go ahead and do it! I have so far had two done and always get compliments on them.
The illustrations are even better in real life. The detail is amazing! They are unique, personal and perfect for your home.
Sian has captured two moments perfectly and I always smile when I look at them. She drew exactly what we asked for, all the small details too, nothing was too much bother for her.
Thank-you again Sian!”
Charlotte Bennetts
“Since our wedding, as a gift for my mum, I had wanted to find a way to have a photo or illustration from our day that included my dad, who had sadly passed away.
I came across Sian’s Instagram and loved the style of her illustrations. She was great at communicating throughout the creation process and the attention to detail on the final illustration is so beautiful.
It is a special illustration that we love having displayed and will treasure forever.”

Sian did such an amazing job!
I ordered a bespoke family illustration as a gift to my husband for our wedding anniversary. He absolutely loved it, especially the little details that Sian had really taken note of and included.
She was also able to add our pet cat into the illustration with a combination of several photos I had sent her.
So talented and so beautiful!
We are so thrilled and it’s going straight up on the wall!
