Mount Nemrut, Turkey | Art by Todd Berman

Much of the art that Todd creates as we travel is for sale. Check out the art here.

Each drawing depicts sites we've visited, views that have left us breathless, or people we've met, or captures a feeling of a place. The art is affordable and pretty freakin' awesome (in Lauren's opinion).

Prices include shipping - however, if there's no price listed at the bottom of the image, it's sold (maybe commission something instead!). Just let us know which one you want (first come, first served) by sending an email to:

How to Request the Art You Want

Here's some guidelines on what you can tell Todd to help him make the best commissioned work for you.

• Subject: Ask for specific features, for example landscape, architecture, people, animals, food, a staircase. Ask for one or more, and he'll fit as much as he can, as long as it makes the best art for you. Or, you may be more esoteric in your request, for example "the passage of time" or "the power of nature."
• Reality Factor: Would you like the drawing to be more literal or more interpretive? Todd can draw a landscape just as he sees it, capturing the beauty of nature in expressive lines and colors or he can reinterpret what he sees using mixed viewpoints and other techniques to try and better capture the spirit of a place. The drawing, View of Granada with tinto verano, for example, is somewhat interpretive.
• Location, Location, Location: Is there a place you like most in this world? Then, check our route to see if we're heading there and request art inspired by that country. Please, be sure to make your request at least three weeks before we'll arrive.
• Indecisive? Just ask for an "artist's choice" and Todd will make sure to send you something pretty.

Todd will do his best to satisfy your requests, but please understand that some requests will be easier to satisfy than others. If he has any concerns about your request, he will be sure to ask before starting.

All commissioned art will be done in Todd's colorful, expressive style, so check out some of his work to make sure you'll enjoy the end results - see his travel drawings on Flickr or TheArtDontStop.org for examples.
