The boring stuff….

Paintings can be delivered framed or unframed. If you choose unframed, your painting will be supplied with thick, good quality backing board and a colour matched mount, wrapped in cellophane wrap to keep your delicate artwork safe.  If you choose framed, I use a reputable supplier who I have found supplies good quality frames with excellent customer service. The below prices are for unframed paintings, please add on £35 for framing on each size.

  • 8 x 8 - £115

  • 10 x 10 - £145

  • 12 x 12 - £165

There is a £30 surcharge for an additional portrait on the same painting and there may be a further additional charge if a painting request is unusually complex. Many other sizes are also available and may suit your idea or choice of photograph better.  Please contact me for a more accurate quote.

I try to deliver local orders personally where possible, orders from further afield will incur postage which is charged as extra. International shipping may incur taxes.

How to place a commission.

It could not be easier to commission your own art. Simply fill out the contact form or send me an email to discuss your idea.

All my paintings are hand-sketched then hand-painted in watercolour on top quality, 300gsm, cold pressed, cotton paper.

Where applicable, I work from good quality photographs, where the lighting is good and details are visible. Please note that when doing a representative painting, the better the photo, the better the outcome; see here for some photograph examples.

Turnaround time is 2-3 weeks depending on availability. Paintings are done in order of enquiry but, please let me know if you are working to a deadline and I will do my best to organise paintings accordingly. Photos of your painting will be sent for approval throughout the process.

A £25 (non refundable) booking fee will be taken at the booking stage for materials and the balance will be payable upon delivery.

As I am a small business, I really would be grateful if you would share your pictures on social media and tag me in them - most of my business is word of mouth and it will be much appreciated! As a token of appreciation, a 10% discount is offered for additional orders.
