The Little Artist Collection: Their Drawings, Your Favorite Keepsake

A little stick figure. A big smile. A hairstyle only your child could dream up. Their drawings capture more than what they see. They capture how they see you, and that is worth holding onto.

The Little Artist Collection by Leela’s Ink turns your child’s drawing into a custom t-shirt design, creating a wearable reminder of their imagination and this moment in their childhood.

Little drawings. Big memories.

Children have their own way of telling a story. Sometimes Mom has extra-long legs. Sometimes a family portrait comes with wonderfully wild hair. Those unexpected details are what make their artwork personal.

This collection celebrates that personality. Rather than letting a favorite drawing disappear into a drawer, you can turn it into a keepsake to wear and enjoy.

Drawn by them. Worn by you.

Our examples show the journey from an original drawing to a t-shirt design, with playful wording such as “Apparently, this is what I look like!” and “My Mama According to Me.” The heart of each piece is the same: their art, their story, and someone they love.

A custom kids’ t-shirt gives your little artist a way to wear their creativity, too. It is a sweet way to celebrate the person behind the drawing, not just the finished picture.

More than uploading a picture

This is a personal design service. We review your child’s drawing and recreate or clean up the artwork for a custom t-shirt design inspired by the original. The goal is to keep the character that makes it theirs while preparing it for a wearable keepsake.

You will receive an emailed proof to review before anything is printed. One minor revision is included, and production begins only after proof approval and payment.

How to start your Little Artist keepsake

  1. Choose a drawing. Take a clear photo or scan so the artwork is easy to see.
  2. Complete the request form. Fill out our Little Artist request form with your contact information and design choices.
  3. Email your drawing. After submitting the form, send your drawing to littleartist@leelasink.com. Use the same name and email address as your form submission so we can match them.
  4. Review your proof. We will email your custom design for approval, with one minor revision included.
  5. Approve and pay. Once you approve the proof, we will arrange payment before your t-shirt moves into production.

Little Artist t-shirt pricing

The first personalized adult t-shirt is $39.99. The kids’ t-shirt is $26.99.

Whether it is a gift for Mom, Dad, a grandparent, or a keepsake for your little artist, the meaning comes from the drawing only they could have made.

Every little artist has a story

They will grow. Their drawings will change. But the way they see the world right now deserves a place in your memories.
