FAQ
- TINY ART is a project by a team of designers, who love how much imagination and wit kids place in their art. That’s why we made it our mission to create high quality and individual artworks from kid’s original drawings to print yourself.

Turn your kid’s drawing into an artprint – in 3 easy steps:
Step 1: Create a layout for your artprint with our configurator by choosing colors and a title.
Step 2: Take a photo of your kid’s drawing (please regard our tips for taking a suitable image) and upload it. On a preview screen you will be able to position and scale the drawing. Please keep in mind that the preview is just temporary and does not show the finished artprint.
Step 3: One of our experienced designers will create your personal artprint, accurately to the original drawing. After that, your finished TINY ART will be sent to you by email as a PDF file for you to print yourself.

Since we want to provide you an artwork that meets our requirements in quality and does not alter the original drawing, we sometimes have to reject drawings that aren’t suitable for a TINY ART. Here you can find out which drawings are well suited for a TINY ART and which aren’t:
Perfectly suited:
- a simple line drawing (not colored in) – drawn with a pencil, colored pencil, pen, marker etc.
- simple print images, for example a handprint with finger paint
Item 1 of 7Less fitted, but after an assessment by our designers potentially suitable:
- drawings that are fully colored in
- paintings with watercolor / aquarelle / acrylic / oil

You can do your part to make sure you get the best possible realization of your artprint by photographing it well. We have put together 6 tips for the ideal picture:
Alignment: Take the photo in an upright format since our artprints are only available in portrait.
Light: Make sure you have enough light, ideally daylight. Shadows should be avoided.
Perspective: Always take the photo frontally.
Resolution: A photo taken by your smartphone in high quality is perfectly fine. Take the picture with a steady hand and make sure the image isn’t blurry.
Section: Always take one picture of the whole drawing and not several of parts of the drawing. If only one part of the drawing is supposed to become the artprint, please cover up the rest with white paper.
Paper: The best TINY ART prints are created when the original is drawn on a plain white piece of paper. Drawings on lined or squared paper are a lot more difficult and first have to be checked by our designers.
Our recommendation: Take a picture with “Adobe Scan” To ideally digitize your drawing you can use the free smartphone app “Adobe Scan”. Taking a picture of your drawing through the app will automatically scan it and create a PDF. This you can transform into a JPEG easily by clicking on options and then upload it to our configurator. The advantage: the app automatically adjusts the contrast so your picture is better suited. You can download the app for free via Apple AppStore or Google Play.

We think it's great if others can also enjoy the unique kids drawings. This just means that we may show your artwork on social media or on our website as examples of wonderful kids art. Personal details such as surnames will of course be anonymized.
- Once your order is complete, the design process follows, where your original drawing is edited by one of our designers. As soon as your TINY ART is ready, we will send it to you as a high-resolution PDF file by email to print it out yourself at home.
- After submitting your order our design team will check if your drawing is suitable. Then the real design process begins: The drawing is being placed on the chosen background color by one of our designers. Stains or bumps will be erased. The colors will be realized exactly according to your selection. If you wish, your image will also be perfectly scaled and positioned and completed with your title.
- Our design team consists of qualified designers who care a great deal to keep the originality of the creative drawing. With love and fun they will transform your drawing into a TINY ART print.

Item 1 of 8 - To send you a beautiful artprint, we check beforehand if your submitted image is suitable for our design process. In the rare case we can not create a high quality artprint from your drawing and reject your order, we will notify you via email.
- Possible reasons for us rejecting your order is a not suitable drawing or picture of your drawing. That’s why we put together some exemplary pictures of TINY ART prints and tips for photographing your drawing correctly.
- If your submitted drawing can’t be turned into an artprint, we will contact you via email. Of course you will immediately get your money back – we hope you’ll try it again. Read about some reasons why your drawing might not have been suitable and try ordering again.
- The color of the lines in your original drawing will be adjusted by our designers. During the configuration process you can choose, which of the following colors will be used on the previously selected background:
- white
- black
- light tonal (fitted to the background color)
- dark tonal (fitted to the background color)
- After you have uploaded your drawing, you have the option to scale and align the drawing on the background you’ve selected. However, we also offer that our skilled designers adjust the position and scale of your artprint according to their expertise – just check the corresponding box after your image upload. Only then will our designers change the position you’ve chosen. If you don’t check the box, we will leave the chosen scale and alignment as is.

Since 2024, we offer our TINY ART artworks as a digital version only. That means, you will receive the final result as a high-resolution PDF file by email. So you will not get a physical print, but you can print out the PDF file yourself at home instead - in different sizes, as often as you like!
- Basically, you can scale your Tiny Art to any size and print it out. To give you a little guidance, you can choose between the formats Small (EU: A4 (21 × 29,7 cm) or US: Letter (8.5 x 11 inch)), Medium (EU: A2 (42 × 59,4 cm) or US: 11 x 17 inch) and Large (EU: >A1 (50 × 70 cm) or US: 24 x 36 inch). The only reason for this is so that the ratio between font and image size can be perfectly adjusted by our designers.

We offer the digital TINY ART for the following countries: Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Great Britain and the USA.
- The paper makes the difference. White paper makes the colors pop, a warmer paper tone makes the colors softer. Our design team recommends a matte, thicker paper (250g) for best results. You should speak to your local copy store about which paper is right for you - let's go!
- You will receive your digital Tiny Art with and without a title, so you can scale the file in your printer program to your desired formats. We recommend to print small formats (like postcards, etc.) without a title, otherwise the font will be unreadable. All questions about scaling can be discussed with the copy store of your choice.
- We are specialized in the production of artprints and can’t sell you any frames through our website. Since the display of our TINY ART prints is important to us though, we have done some research for you on high quality frame sellers we’d like to recommend:
