5 out of 5 starsCyn was positively wonderful to work with- not only did she get me my proof early but was able to make some requested adjustments within a few days!! The illustration is stunning and I can't wait to use it on my Christmas cards as well as hang a print in my house.

About BOROLINA

Hi! nice to meet you!

This is where I spend most of my day creating
Do what you love
That's what I wanted all my life.
Specially when I was working full time as an Architect, dealing with difficult clients, spending hours in the traffic and answering to a very nasty boss.
It took me years and lots of sacrifices, but I finally was able to do what I love and make a living out of it.
I taught myself how to draw and after some years of practice, here I am, making portraits of beautiful families and pets and illustrating children's books.
And I can do all of this from my cozy home, enjoying a cup of hot tea and surrounded by my dogs.
I am grateful and lucky to be able to live this kind of life.

Sizing details
The best printing size for your portrait would be 8"x11" inches (A4 size) in a photographic paper or couche paper.
Custom and personalized orders
I can arrange a group portrait for you even if you only have individual photos.
But I will need high resolution photos for a better result. Thank you
Other form of payment
If you don't have a paypal account, you can pay with a credit or debit card.
Custom and personalized orders
Of course! just send me a photo of that outfit and I will draw that in the portrait. I can also draw bride's dresses or evening gowns or any silly costume you can think of!
