Paintings and Illustration:
I am a produced playwright who also paints. Contact me if you would like to commission a piece of bespoke art.
THE COMMISSIONS PROCESS: With portraiture I usually work in oils or watercolour. For illustrations the choice of medium can be more varied. Portraits can be done from a photograph (sitting not essential). I will need at least one good quality photo plus enough time to complete the work (if there’s a deadline). Oil paints will require longer (several weeks) and watercolour, ink, or pencil will be quicker (a matter of days). If you don’t have one perfect photograph, I might be able to combine the best bits from several photographs. Once you have decided the medium and size, and we have a good image, I will provide you with a quote. I ask for half the fee up front. PRICES: These vary depending on the size of the piece, how many subjects are featured, etc. A portrait in oils will range from £250 to £3500. Get in touch and we can discuss your budget and what you can afford.
