ETHOS
Bespoke illustrations should be joyful and sentimental, capturing the moment with an illustration you can keep forever, make into postcards or invitations. An invitation or a piece of bespoke wedding or party stationery should act as the first glimpse into the fun and excitement to come.
CREATIVE STYLE
I use a combination of lively watercolour, ink and pen, bringing a more modern aesthetic to the traditional house or landscape painting. The technique enhances colour and uses flowing line to emphasise the whimsical character of the subject, with a particular focus on nature and atmosphere.
CREATIVE PROCESS
Commissioning a picture of your home should be equally as uplifting and efficient. I can paint your house after chatting on the phone and using just photographs. If your vision requires a little more creativity, I can provide a sketch for us to develop together.
A father-daughter venture: my first Children’s book!
A perfect Christmas present for the whole family.
Whispers in the Park is set in St James’s Park in London, a very British, serene setting, where most ancient School for Squirrels resides. This funny and satirical book reminds the reader of happy school days, with stereotypical teachers such as ‘the games master’ Badger, and the jolly prep school headmaster squirrel. But things take a turn when school treasures start to go missing, and the headmaster brings in a local cat detective to help unravel the mystery. The cover is in my typical style for colour and nature, while inside is old-school charm in black and white, with nostalgic-style captions for each illustration.
