Expressive paintings for colourful spaces
Bold, characterful portraits full of movement and emotion
“ I used to photograph how people looked, now I paint how people feel”
After 10 years of being a portrait photographer, I now paint expressive, character-driven portraits full of colour, gesture and feeling.
Each painting starts from a photograph- sometimes my own, sometimes from a wonderful creative muse - and ends up somewhere completely its own.

2026 NEWEST RELEASES
This is a beautiful, bright and nostalgic giclee print, made from a drawing that took me over 300 hours to complete. I collated all the original toys, and photographed them professionally, then studied the photographs to create the drawing with coloured pencils.
Our premium canvas prints are made with museum-quality giclée printing on archival canvas for lasting color and detail. Each piece is stretched over wooden stretcher bars and finished with a solid wood frame. Ready to hang with pre-installed sawtooth hardware.
Made on demand
This is a beautiful print on canvas of an oil painting I did in April 2026. The one I'm showing in the photos is 50 x 40 cm
On location illustrations
I’ve always sketched my surroundings whilst travelling, waiting in airports/hospitals etc, but now I’ve started to share those sketches with you.
I show the process of creating these images over on my instagram.
I’ve just launched my first print from these location illustrations as I had so many people asking to buy one!
