Commissions · Three or four a year
A painting made for one wall
A stretch of coast you love, the garden you grew up in, the view from your kitchen window. I take on a small number of commissions each year, for homes, hotels and offices.
N° 01 — Who it’s for
For a place that matters to you
Most commissions are for homes: a painting of a beach where someone proposed, a garden that has since been sold, the view from a holiday cottage.
I also paint for boutique hotels, restaurants and offices that want original work made for a particular room.
N° 02 — How it works
Four steps, and no surprises
01
A conversation
We talk about the place, the room and the size. You send photos, I may visit. No charge, no obligation.
02
Sketch & quote
I make two or three small colour studies and send a fixed quote. A 50% deposit books your place in the diary.
03
Painting
The painting takes six to ten weeks. I send photos at key stages so you can see it grow.
04
Delivery & hanging
When you’re happy, the balance is due. I deliver in Cornwall and arrange art courier everywhere else.

Tell me about the place
A few details help me reply with useful ideas. There’s no commitment until you’ve seen the sketches and the quote.
