Canvas painting commission

I have been busy in the studio last week painting a canvas commission. I was commissioned to paint Four grandchildren in these paintings in black and white, and in the style that was chosen. As all children had blue eyes I brought this feature out. The set of four canvases were painted in acrylic. 

I have taken photos of the progression of the paintings to show the production from drawing to the final paintings. If you would be interested in having a painting commissioned feel free to get in contact.

Design Comp

Here is my design for the Hugo Boss Creative competition. The theme was to look at Stencil art and the city of Berlin. I have created a stencil that is both bold and sexy to capture the essence of both Hugo Boss fragrance and graffiti in Berlin. Check it out and vote for me. Deadline for voting is before the 16th May 2011.

Craft Fair










My first Craft Fair of the year with some new work. The fair took place in Derby from 10am - 2pm.
On sale was a variety of handmade cards, small hand painted canvases, a mixture of pin badges and advertising my personalised canvases made to order. The day was a little quiet but I have some more fairs booked through out the year. I will keep you posted when and where they will be.

Thanks for taking a look. Please let me know what you think :)
