    I presume you want to know how to get the picture.
    Open the picture in photopaint.
    convert it to 2 bit black and white, choose line art in the options panel then use the threshold slider to get the required effect,

    take the result into draw, and trace or vectorize

    Sorry for the late reply mate. No the Union jack is not distorted at all and the photo was created just like Peter said. 🙂
