HOME CONSULTATIONS

I offer free, no-pressure home consultations to help you find the perfect piece for your space. If you’re local (Essex, Kent, Hertfordshire or London), I can bring the gallery to you, so you can see how your favourite pieces look in your home before making any decisions.

Not local? No problem ? I also offer virtual mock-ups where I digitally place my paintings into a photo of your wall so you can visualise exactly how they?ll look. There?s no pressure to buy ? just honest, friendly advice to help you find something that truly fits.

YES, you can buy either my original paintings or Limited edition prints through my shop. However, if an original painting is represented by a gallery you will have to purchase the piece directly from them or their website.

Delivery is free for UK Mainland. It is also free Internationally on my smaller 30 x 30cm pieces. All other international shipping costs are calculated at checkout, Please not that duties and import costs are the responsibility of the buyer.

I use reputable courier companies and insure all paintings for transit or deliver the pieces personally if possible.

If you change your mind after you have paid the 30% non refundable deposit then this amount will not be returned. I ask for a deposit to cover my upfront costs and as confirmation that you want me to proceed with the painting.

Please see the painting description to see if the price includes framing. Most or my pieces are framed however you can always add a frame or change a frame if required.

Yes,  all my paintings are signed on the reverse so that it doesn’t influence how you hang it. Unless you request differently.

No worries, all you have to do is email me the title of the painting you like and provide details of you preferred colour pallette. Please note due to the fact that my paintings are abstract and original I cannot produce the exact copy of the piece you like but will create a piece in the same style.

All you have to do is email me with your desired style, colour palette and size. I will then confirm these details and if a deposit is payable. When the painting is complete I will email you pictures and you can request any changes. Once you have confirmed by email that you are happy with the final painting, I will request that the remaining money is paid. Once received I will send the painting to the address you provide.
