Custom Wood Portraits
By Sticks & Doodles
Not a print.
Not a painting.
Something else entirely.
Built from tiny pieces of hand-painted wood, and hand-assembled by our team — your Custom Wood Portrait is unlike anything you've ever given or received.
WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT
Made from
real wood.
It starts with a drawing
Every portrait starts as a hand-drawn original by Danelle Moffatt, our artist and founder. She then spends hours engineering that drawing — transforming every line into what will become dozens to hundreds of individual wood pieces that make up your portrait.
You approve it first
Before anything is cut, we send you a digital proof. You see exactly what you're getting and can request changes before we build.
Then it's built by hand
Our team cuts, layers, and assembles the tiny pieces of wood to bring the drawing to life in three dimensions. It takes over 20 hours to design and build a single portrait.
It's like nothing else
Gifting a portrait is a life highlight. The moment they unwrap it and can't find words. Wood they can hold, feel, and hang on their wall for the rest of their life — made from a photo that means everything to them, and gifted by someone who values them.

Your Artists
Danelle is the artist and co-founder of Sticks & Doodles. Every Custom Wood Portrait begins with her — a hand-drawn original in her signature minimalist line art style that she's developed over years of making one-of-a-kind pieces.
Once Danelle's drawing is approved, her team takes over – cutting, layering, and hand-assembling hundreds of individual wood pieces into something amazing.

Product Care and Questions
Product Care
Our pieces are made with high-quality wood and durable paints and are intended for indoor use only.
To keep your item looking it's best, avoid excess moisture, and keep signs away from heat exposure (both can lead to warping).
Always display indoors in a temperature-controlled environment.
If you have a question about care, touch-ups, or minor repairs, just reach out – we're always happy to help!

The Sticks & Doodles Story
It all started in a basement
In 2019, we started in a Regina basement with a couple of tools, a lot of grit, and a genuine love for making people smile. The early years were hard — but we never stopped believing that meaningful, personalized gifts should be easy to order and impossible to forget.
The Sticks & Doodles Story
Five years later
With the support of an incredible team, community, and customers like you, we've grown from that basement to a flagship studio and store in East Regina. A lot has changed — but our heart hasn't. We're still here to celebrate the stories, connections, and moments that make life worth remembering.
Thank you for being part of it. — Kyle & Danelle
