PORTRAITURE

Portraiture is a rewarding and integral part of my practice and as such I have been making commissioned portraits of people and animals for many years.

I tend to only accept work that I can make with integrity and interest and as such only expect payment if the client is happy with the piece.

PROCESS
Initially it would be good to have a chat about the subject, be it family members, children or a loved animal or pet whilst also discussing any further meaning, symbolism and/or sacred geometry you may want included within the portrait.

I work from photographs and would ideally take my own photos of the subject. As this is not always possible I can work from high resolution images.

Pricing depends on size and included geometry. As all portraits are unique the dimensions will vary from piece to piece. However the majority fall between 40cms x 60cms up to 100cms x 100cms with a rough pricing for these sizes beginning at £1800 to £4500.

I can of course take care of any framing requirements and deal any logistics/delivery.

Once all has been agreed the work itself will take about 3 weeks from the agreed start date. During this time I will keep you updated on its progress or not as you prefer. Hopefully the previous portraits in this section will give you an clearer idea of my portraits.

Please feel free to contact me for any further information.

MANDARIN ORIENTAL HOTEL

Visto Images Commission (Install completed in 2018)

The Geometry used in all pieces comes from the sacred geometry of Eve’s grid.

I am currently developing a meadow in Devon which I am doing not only for conservation reasons to support the wildlife of the area (especially bees and Butterflies) But also for inspiration and research which informs my work.
The images of the flowers are from my meadow and the Peacock Butterfly is one of our most recognisable British Butterflies.
