My walls are adorned with pics of my kids when they were little and I often think how nice it would be to have a family portrait of them as young adults. But since it’s almost impossible to get them into the same room, let alone the same picture, this clever idea for a pop art style collage using your existing photos (or taking fresh ones) from the local art studio, One Off Art really appeals.
Stuart Mackenzie and his team meet each client to find out what different family members are like and how best to portray their hobbies and interests. He then comes up with a range of ideas in different styles – perhaps an arrangement of individual portraits linked together, or a Gilbert & George style group composition like the one above with its bold, stained glass window effect. The final piece is mounted on a high-quality frame – and voila! You have a unique piece of personalised art.
For one lucky family, One Off Art is offering a free composition of your choosing – it could be your family, yourself or even your pet. Enter by June 30; T&Cs apply. For more information about One Off Art see one-off-art.co.uk
