People, animals and landscapes

In the examples of my figurative paintings and drawings on this page you will see that the colour vibe runs through many of my pictures, as it does through my resin pieces, fluid artwork and furniture revamps. While my colourful pieces are indeed colourful :) I usually limit my palette in each piece to 4 colours (or fewer), which I find most impactful and intuitive. Of course I also create monochrome pieces, in pencil and paint. 

If my work appeals and you are considering commissioning a painting or drawing of something/someone/somewhere that is special to you, do get in touch. 

To give you an idea of prices at the outset and save you from scrolling, as my painting and drawing style is very detailed I spend many hours on each piece. 

Prices start from £160 for a black and white A5 pencil drawing of one animal/person, with A5 colour pencil drawings starting at £240.  

A4 paintings (I don't usually paint anything smaller than A4) start at £400 for one animal/person and £800 for A3.

More than one subject in a single picture usually costs 50% more as there's more than one likeness to capture.

In terms of creating your artwork I would need a good quality source photo to work from (relatively high resolution, though a phone photo is usually fine). It is always helpful to have additional images to give me a better feel for my subject. 

I normally work on paper but if you would prefer canvas let me know and we can discuss. 

I usually ask for a month to complete the work, though would hope to finish it sooner.

I require a 50% deposit before starting work, with 50% on completion. The deposit is refundable only if I do not complete your picture (highly unlikely). Within the agreed price you can request one round of edits if for some reason the artwork isn't what you were envisaging (again unlikely). 

I appreciate that a commission is a substantial investment and not for everyone. Many of the artworks below are available as more affordable giclee fine art prints in my shop.

Do ask any questions you may have.
