Some gifts are just… extra special. They’re the kind that make someone smile the second they open them—the kind that says, “I really thought of you.” That’s exactly the magic of custom illustrated portraits. They’re not just gifts—they’re happy little treasures full of love, cuteness, and personal touches.

What’s a Custom Illustrated Portrait?

Imagine your favorite moment, person, or pet turned into a sweet, hand-drawn illustration—cute details, happy colors, and lots of heart. That’s what we do at MariaPalito Studio!

Every portrait is lovingly created by a real artist (that’s me!) to capture your story in the most whimsical and adorable way. From cozy couples to furry best friends, each piece is made to celebrate you.

Why It’s a Gift From the Heart

You can’t find this on a store shelf. Custom portraits are personal, thoughtful, and full of meaning.

They’re perfect because:

They’re one-of-a-kind (just like the person you’re gifting!)
They celebrate real memories and sweet connections
They show you took the time to make something extra special

It’s not just a drawing—it’s a warm little keepsake that says, “You’re so loved.”

Made with Love (and Cute Details!)

Here at MariaPalito Studio, we believe in the beauty of handmade art. Every portrait is drawn with care, soft colors, and lots of sweet little touches—like flower crowns, cozy outfits, or tiny hearts that reflect your personality.

Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, an anniversary, a new baby, or just want to surprise someone “just because,” our portraits make hearts melt.

A Keepsake to Cherish Forever

The best part? These portraits don’t just make someone’s day… they become little treasures that stay with them for years. Framed on a wall, sitting on a shelf, or saved in a memory box—your gift will always bring a smile.
