Commissions
I love making work that is personal to you which is why every commissioned piece of artwork will have different requirements to complete the work.
I work from good, clear photographs. The higher quality your photograph is, the more detail I can capture in the artwork. Where there are multiple subjects, I can use separate photos and combine them in one piece. Photos can be emailed to me or sent via the enquiry form through this website.
Let’s Work Together

Prices are dependent on:
- the number of subjects in a portrait

- the medium used.

Payment & Time Scale
A nonrefundable 50% deposit is taken before I commence the work and the remaining balance is due on completion of the work.
Payment can be made via Bank Transfer or PayPal.
Book early to avoid disappointment! I usually allow 4-6 weeks to complete a piece of work. This time frame may increase during busy periods such as prior to Christmas, Father’s Day, Mother’s Day. The size and level of detail can also affect production time. A more accurate time scale will be given on placing your order.

Artwork can be framed at additional cost.
Pencil drawings are packaged in a clear polythene envelope.
Paintings are packaged in bubble wrap and boxed.

Social media
I will share images of the completed artwork on my social media after the date you have gifted the piece. If you do not want the work to be shared, please state this at the time of your order.
