Commission a painting
Perhaps you would like a bespoke piece of artwork to remind you of a special experience or as a gift for someone with a particular interest.
A commission can be a great opportunity to create something really distinctive or of unusual proportions. I can produce paintings that work as pairs or triptychs and large canvases. Whether inspired by themes I’ve explored before or something entirely new, I’m always happy to consider proposals.
Please note I do not undertake commissions of domestic animals or human portraits.
Contact me if you would like to commission a creative piece of wildlife or landscape artwork.
