Bespoke Portraits

Pastel portraits make a wonderful and memorable gift. I specialise in human, dog, cat and horse portraits. Please take a look below to see examples of my work.

  • I draw with PanPastel and coloured pencil on Ingres Pastel Paper whilst working from high quality photos. I will work with you to decide which photos will work best and why, and to accommodate any specific requirements you may have.

  • I work roughly to a standard size of 6×8 inches for one subject, however I can work to any size you require.

    My prices start from £225 for one subject (6x8 inches) plus postage. The price includes a £75 deposit upfront.

  • I am pleased to be able to offer a framing and mounting service at an extra cost with pickup from Didcot, Oxfordshire only.

  • So you’ve decided you want to commission a portrait, what’s next? We’ll chat by email about how you want your portrait to appear regarding pose, background colour and size etc.

    You’ll then need to send over several high quality photographs of the subject and we’ll discuss to see which one works best. Once all the important decisions have been made I’ll require a £75 deposit before proceeding.

    I’m just as excited as you are to work on your portrait! I’ll keep you updated by sending through one progress photo and another once completed. When you are happy with the completed portrait you can make the remaining payment (plus postage) and I’ll send your portrait straight out to you.

Interested in commissioning? Please get in touch to discuss your portrait!
