    Louise with Precious ( commission)

    Louise with Precious ( commission)

    My most recent commission. I love the composition and colour palette of this one, it all works so well, a relaxed affectionate portrait. Commissions can easily be arranged, both through Artfinder and by contacting me directly via my website.

    International Artists Day

    International Artists Day

    Thought that I would celebrate today by sharing a commission from a few years ago... it's not just international artists that need to be celebrated, it's international collectors too. This piece was commissioned by my loyal collector in Poland, and is one of my favourites. Honey Bee, oil on canvas 80 x 80cm. Happy creating everyone!

    Finish Line (commission)

    Finish Line (commission)

    Another win for Mark Cavendish. I really enjoyed the complexity of this request...very time consuming but worth every hour spent. I love the pop of colours and the busyness.

    The finished piece

    The finished piece

    Here's the result of the portrait sitting from the previous photo. Background is painted with metallic gold which is tricky to capture accurately here. I enjoyed painting this beautiful young woman, and was extremely grateful that she travelled from the US for her sitting. It is useful to spend time with a subject ( although by no means essential).

    Portrait sitting

    I am used to travelling for commission sittings within the UK, but this beautiful young woman travelled all the way from San Francisco to my home for hers this weekend. Commissions can easily be arranged via Artfinder, or by contacting me directly via my website.
