Hand-painted website illustration
Giulia Dal Bon hand-paints the images of a website: the home banner, the illustrations of each page, the backgrounds, the small icons, the portrait of the team. She paints the original with a brush, then lays it out in Photoshop and Illustrator, and you receive the files in the right dimensions. From 400 €, free quote within 48 hours.

How it works
When you contact me about an illustration, here is what happens next.
The quote
I send you a free quote within 48 hours.
Two sketches
Two free sketches: you tell me what you think, and I adjust.
The file
I paint the original by hand, lay it out, and you receive the print-ready file.
A website that looks like someone
Two websites out of three use the same stock photos, and the visitor feels it at once. A hand-painted illustration does the opposite: it belongs to that house, it carries the trace of the brush, and it gets noticed on a page people scroll through quickly.
Giulia paints the large banner at the top, one image per page, the workshop, the product, the landscape, the team, a discreet section background, a series of small icons drawn in the same hand, the map of the place, the portrait of the people. All drawn to hold on a phone as well as on a large screen.
From the painting to the website files
Send the website address or the mock-up, the list of pages and the image formats. Giulia replies within 48 hours with a free quote and prepares two included sketches. You tell her what you think and she adjusts.
She paints the original, then lays it out in Photoshop and Illustrator, two programs she knows well enough to have given private lessons on them. You receive the files in the exact dimensions, in several widths for phone and computer, in PNG or SVG depending on the use, and the vector paths for the icons. Your developer drops them in as they are.
Who has the images of their website painted
Restaurants, hotels and guesthouses; wine estates, breweries and delicatessens; makers, designers and fashion brands; therapists, practices and yoga studios; associations, festivals and museums; architects, agencies and production studios; authors, musicians and photographers who want a website made by hand rather than from a template.
Your questions, before commissioning
How do I commission hand-painted website illustration?
Tell Giulia Dal Bon what you have in mind for the images of your website, and she brings your idea to life with you. She sends you a free quote within 48 hours, then two free sketches: you tell her what you think, and she adjusts. She paints the original by hand, lays it out in Photoshop and Illustrator, and you receive the web-ready files. An illustration starts at 400 €.
Are the images delivered ready for the web?
Yes: in the exact dimensions, in several widths for phone, tablet and computer, compressed to stay light, in PNG, JPG or SVG depending on the use. The icons are vectorised, so they stay sharp at every size. Your developer or your agency drops them straight in.
Can the same images be used on social media?
Yes, and that is what gives a brand its unity. The same drawing is adapted to a square for Instagram, a banner for LinkedIn, a cover photo, a vertical story. The formats are listed in the quote from the start.
Can the website match the logo and the label?
That is the very aim: a single hand on the logo, the label, the website and the business card makes an identity recognisable at a glance. A complete identity starts at 1,500 €.
What if the website already exists?
Giulia looks at the pages and suggests what would gain from being painted: usually the home banner and three or four page images are enough to change the overall impression. Send the address, she tells you what she would do with it.
How much does hand-painted graphic design cost?
From 500 € for a logo or lettering, 400 € for a label, an album cover or a book cover, 700 € for a poster. A complete identity, logo, label, packaging, starts at 1,500 €, and a whole range is quoted separately. The price includes painting the original, two included sketches, corrections during the work and the high-definition file ready for the printer. Giulia Dal Bon replies within 48 hours with a free quote.
What do I receive at the end?
A high-definition file in the exact dimensions of your medium, ready to go to the printer, with the variations you need. The painted original stays yours if you wish: it is a work on paper or on canvas, and it can be framed. It looks right in the shop, the workshop or the office, next to the product it dresses.
Does Giulia also draw the name and the lettering?
Yes, and it is a part of the work she loves. She draws the name letter by letter, by hand, and composes the whole page: the name, the legal wording, the vintage, the title. She studied graphic design at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, alongside painting. The lettering can be painted with a brush, drawn in ink or cleaned up afterwards for print.
Who owns the design?
You do. The visual is painted for your house and for it alone: it is assigned to you for the intended use, and the quote says which. Giulia keeps the right to show the work in her portfolio, like any author. If you want full exclusivity or a wider use, that is written into the quote from the start.
Can we start from a photo or an AI-generated image?
Yes, and many people arrive with one today. An image found on Pinterest or generated by AI gives a direction: a colour, a framing, an atmosphere. Giulia looks at it, keeps the intention and paints an original by hand, with her own shapes, in the true dimensions of your medium. You get a work painted for you alone, and it belongs to you.
Can Giulia prepare the file for print?
Yes, that is the second half of the job. She paints the original by hand, then lays it out in Photoshop and Illustrator, two programs she knows well enough to have given private lessons on them. You receive a clean file, in the exact dimensions, with bleed, the requested colour mode and vector paths where needed. Your printer can talk to her directly.
When will I receive the file?
The schedule is set with you at the quote stage, around your print, release or event date. Giulia sends two sketches, you choose, she paints, shows the progress and you adjust with her. Write to her with your date, she tells you straight away whether it can be met.
