I’ve been lucky to work with something I love for my whole life. I’ve started illustrating professionally when I was still attending undergraduate art program, creating images for magazines, children books and advertisement. That was a looong time ago 😊
In 2016, I started creating custom portraits in paper.
It is always a pleasure starting a new project, getting to know a bit of each family member, studying their faces and finding the details that make each person unique. I love interacting with my costumers and receiving their feedback in all the steps of the process. It’s always fun to choose the photos, outfits and hair styles that best represent them.
I feel honoured that my work has become part of intimate moments of so many families and to be trusted by every person that chooses to have a portrait made by PurplePaperPeople.
Thank you!

5 out of 5 starsMy wife and I *LOVE* the portrait Patricia made for us, and working with Patricia was an absolute pleasure. The portrait is so full of detail, and the dimensionality of the paper and the shadows make it come alive. Patricia was able to capture subtle variations in our hair, the glints in our eyes, our freckles, and the flecks of gray in my beard. We can’t recommend PurplePaperPeople portraits enough.

5 out of 5 starsI am just BESIDE myself at how beautiful my portrait is. I literally gasped when I saw it in person for the first time, and gifted it to my boyfriend as a milestone present to celebrate the purchase of our home. He was VERY impressed! The entire experience working with Patricia from start to finish was easy, straightforward and so thoughtful. She replied quickly, answered all my questions and was so responsive to all my feedback and requests for the art piece. It is obvious how much love and attention to detail she puts into her craft. She even packaged it with so much care so it arrived to me in perfect shape. It was worth every single penny and is easily one of the most special pieces of artwork I have ever received. My little family and I will cherish this forever. - Italia, Tsz, Violet, Valerie, & Valentina

5 out of 5 starsPatricia is an amazing artist who has captured the essence of our family twice now - once with our first child and again with the birth of our second. Made Mother’s Day a great day. Recommend her services for anyone looking for something personal and special.

5 out of 5 starsThank you for the beautiful wallpaper design for our aviation-themed guest bath. Patricia was a pleasure to work with and worked with us every stop of the way to create a custom wallpaper design that we LOVE! The wallpaper is the statement piece of the new bathroom.

5 out of 5 starsI ordered this as the wedding anniversary gift to my husband. Patricia was very easy to work with. She asked for several pictures and questions to make sure she understands and gets what I want. The end result was wonderful! I even got teary when I saw it. I am having it framed, cannot wait to gift it to my husband.
