Everyone has a story and I love to paint it! I create original works of art in a variety of mediums, primarily watercolour. I like to keep my paintings fresh, modern and a little fun!
My aim is to provide every client with an individual painting unique to them. I love creating pieces for you to enjoy for years to come!
If you decide to commission a portrait from me, you will receive the original artwork signed and dated.
Prints of my original, non-commissioned artworks are available for purchase, these can be viewed on my portfolio page. Each is printed on 315gsm, high quality, soft textured archival Giclée fine art paper. Do not hesitate to contact me for more information if you see one you like!
Once I have received your photos via email, we can begin a discussion as to which photo will work best and whether there is a preference for a particular size or composition.
Subsequent to our discussion, I will email you with an image of your photograph,outlining the final dimensions and composition agreed.
As soon as you are happy, I will send over a document to be signed by you, confirming you are ready for me to start painting and understand that, once I have started, there cannot be any cancellations, changes or refunds.
The size and number of subjects will determine the length of time I will need to complete your unique painting. I will need a maximum of 12 weeks.
It is important to note that each portrait is drawn entirely by hand, using the photograph as a reference only; no tracing or digital manipulation is involved at any stage. As such, time and great effort is spent ensuring the likeness to the subject.
Once complete, I will contact you to confirm shipping details and finalise the payment process.
1-3 clear, well lit photographs. Providing more than one photograph option will enable me to advise you which would work best as a portrait.
