Commissions

I had so much fun working on my final commission of 2025, and what beautiful subjects to finish the year! My client sent me seperate photos of Ralph, Delilah and Maisie. I decided on a 'floating head' type arrangement as each photo featured different poses and lighting, and ammended the light slightly on each to make it look part of one scene. It was gifted at Christmas to her delighted recipient 🥺

Delilah, Derek, and Dave! Very lovely names for some very lovely doggos. I loved every minute of creating this special portrait for my lovely client Evie, who sent me over various photos of her old English sheepdog family, and a photo of her garden, to create this triple portrait of them all looking very content together! As with most cases, it was pretty impossible to get a photo of them all together but that was no problem!

I hand delivered this to Evie's family as I just don't trust royal mail during the Christmas period, especially with such a large piece, and then had a lovely weekend in Canterbury visiting the Christmas markets afterwards. A wonderful end to 2024!

It has now been gifted to Evie's mum for Christmas, who loved it!

My collector Thomas had his 4th commission request for me this month, and what a joy it was to create for him to celebrate him and his partner Sam living a wonderful memory they both share of their adventures! I just loved getting into all of that detail in the mountains; it's not often I draw scenery so this was a nice change. 

I am working with my framer to match exactly the frames from his previous commissions so they look perfect next to eachother on the wall. 

His partner, Sam, has envisioned that there will be no photos hanging on the walls of their new house, only drawings!

Once this has been gifted in 2025 I can share more! ;)

My lovely client Penny commissioned a graphite portrait in size 10x14" of her two beloved sausages, Daisy and Bruno for her husband's 60th birthday gift. Daisy & Bruno were reluctant to get a photo together, so Penny and I worked together using multiple photos to achieve the perfect composition. Penny even measured their snouts for me to ensure their size relations were correct; she insisted I refer to her from then on as 'The Mad Sausage Lady'!

I recently had the privilege of creating a very special portrait for my client. Doug reached out to me after sadly losing his father last year. This portrait was truly unique—a collage of memories, bringing together moments from his dad’s life. From his time in the Royal Navy, his favorite car, and his childhood dog, to his wedding day, his love of golf, and his proud Scottish heritage. One of my favorite parts is Doug’s dad sitting on a bench, looking into the distance. It feels as if he’s reflecting on the wonderful years of his life, sitting in a heavenly park with his beloved dog by his side. Projects like these, where I can design an original composition from scratch are such a joy to work on. It was an honor to create this piece, and I’m grateful to have been part of preserving such cherished memories.  This tribute to his dad now takes pride of place in their home.

Emma truly misses her best friend, Mr. Boosh. Her husband commissioned this portriat of him, and it was such a joy to work on! We had limited older photos, but made them work for his portrait; I chose pastels for this one as they are slightly softer and less 'detail oriented' as the photos were quite blurry. Complete with golden engraved plaque!

Jack had a heartfelt request for his commission booking. He wanted to have his daughter in the arms of his Wife's parents, who sadly never got to meet their granddaughter in this life. He also wanted to have her father 'cheersing' to the viewer, as he was well known to do. This was a really rewarding project.

My client Nathan commissioned me to draw this really special portrait of his wife, their kids and his wife's late father, all together again. He didn't get to meet the children, so it was a joy to create this scene.

This was such a fun portrait to create! Not my usual style - but when my repeat client Scarlett reached out and asked for this concept for her mum's 50th birthday, I thought it was such a fun idea! Casper is known to rule the house, so depicting him as an army general was very fitting!

My wonderful client Ellis reached out to commission another portrait for his Dad's wedding gift, and it was very well recevied!

My client Thomas was one of the first clients I had for pet portraiture a very long time ago, so when he reached out asking for a large wildlife artwork I was really excited! He came to me with a photo he liked of 2 lions, and I created my own composition using many different reference photos. Once we decided on his favourite design, I got to work! This is the largest size I've ever worked on (33x45"), so it was no small task, but I loved every minute.
