I will hand draw a unique surreal illustration
Gabriel M
About this gig
I create custom original hand-drawn surreal pieces, great as standalone artworks, illustrations or book/album covers, blending traditional techniques with a fresh perspective. With years of experience, I create unique, macabre, and fantastic, heavy-constrast & atmospheric drawings, illustrations & covers on order.
If you have an idea, or a motive, perhaps a theme or even just a glimpse of what you would like to see - I can make it happen on any piece of paper/canvas. Alternatively I can also create a custom piece without any instruction (example: only based on a color scheme, dimensions or even less).
Reach out and we can create something that goes hard.

I’m a Croatian traditionalist painter with 15+ years of experience, specializing in surreal art. My work delves into timeless, unusual, macabre, and fantastic themes, using oil paints, acrylics, and pencil/coal drawings and illustrations.
While grounded in classic techniques, my approach blends old-world craftsmanship with contemporary perspective (without hubris or ai).
I create custom paintings, album covers, comic-style contrast-heavy drawings.
Feel free to reach out if you're interested in hiring, a unique creation or an existing piece from my collection.

FAQ
What kind of tools do you use for drawings & illustrations?
Graphite pencils or charcoal, pens (technical and fineliner) and markers.
Are details like canvas size, color, motive, theme required for me to comission a painting?
Absolutely not. I can create a custom painting for you based purely on my imagination and availability of canvases.
What do I get in 5-7 days?
In 5-7 days you get a drawing picture (or more of them) of the final painting/drawing, which, once approved, is sent to you.
How does your workflow usually look?
Once the drawing is requested and optional details shared, I create the artwork during the week after which you receive an photograph of it, or a video if requested. Following that, I ship the artwork to your address.
What paper/canvas sizes do you prefer, or that you recommend?
Paper - A4 and above, but can work with smaller pieces too. Canvas - Anything between 50cm - 1m is best for my style & developing a detail-rich artwork that can fit your walls, in a week.
Do you create large drawings/cover-art?
I do, anything between 20cm - 2m in height/width is possible, but larger drawings are pricier to buy equipment for & take longer to ship, as well as take more time to fully fill out.
What if I have an idea of how a drawing is supposed to look?
I will consult with you and take your suggestions into account.
What if I don't like the final artwork?
You are entitled to not liking a newly created painting (my ego will survive this), after which you can request a refund. I am aware not everyone will enjoy what I create. However, I always discuss the initial ideas and direction with clients first so this has not yet happened ;)
Where do you normally ship your paintings to?
General European Area, EU. Exceptions for US, Canada & South America can be made.
Where can I view your other artworks?
On my website (https://paintedby-gm.com/) as well as on my instagram (https://www.instagram.com/paintedbygm/)
