A photo becomes a colored pencil and pen-and-ink drawing on a vintage notebook page, shot from high above as if the subject is taking a selfie. Doodles, arrows, swatches and comic-style words surround the figure, which seems to lift off the paper.

How to use it

Swap the comic words for your own, such as a city name or a mood, and keep the top-down camera and the notebook-page doodles so the sketchbook feel holds. Good for a personal mood board, a travel journal page, or a fashion-style gift print.
