Commissions

Welcome to a selection of some of the commissions created for and with my collectors. I adore the exploration stage as it’s always heart-warming and insightful to hear peoples’ stories and how we’ll translate those to the canvas. The next stage is sourcing or creating the collage whether that’s my own drawings, handwritten notes, historic photos, or family photos (the possibilities are endless!) to create a truly personalised artwork. Lastly, washes of paint are applied and the layers of sentiment and meaning are brought together.

If this sounds like something you’d like for your home or to gift to a loved one, reach out. As a starting point, I can send you a guide to my process and cost guidelines.

Proud Yorkshireman
Mixed media on canvas
40cm x 40cm

As the name suggests, this artwork was commissioned for a Yorkshireman living in Australia. I love a pork pie so I was more than happy to purchase one (and then devour it) to create this still life. Ok, I may also have drunk the beer too!

I love your art and would like to invest in an artwork…
