  • Yes, absolutely! Shipping is included for the ROI and UK.

    I provide a separate quote for other countries.

  • My most popular sizes are 10” x 8” and 12” x 10”. Prices for these sizes in Watercolour, the more popular medium, are:

    8” x 10” = €350
    12” x 10” = €425

    I can go up or down in sizes to suit your budget. Let me know if you’re interested in another medium such as pencil or oil.

    Price includes registered post within the ROI and UK.

    Frame not included.

  • I can sketch/paint whatever you like! Perhaps you’d like your first home together, or the church you were married.
    It could be softly painted in watercolour in an illustration style, or a realistic graphite study. Whatever is to your taste!

  • Price depends on several factors:

    • Size (most popular sizes are 8” x 10” and 12” x 10”).

    • Medium - Graphite Pencil, Colour Pencil, Watercolour, Oil.

    • The number of people/subjects.

    • Whether the background is included.

    • The amount of detail involved.

    To get an accurate quote, send me the photo(s) you’d like me to work from.

  • It’s a matter of taste. I use artist quality materials in all my work.

    Colour pencil is dearer than graphite as it takes longer to build up and blend the layers. Oil is premium price as an oil portrait can take weeks to complete.

  • This is up to you. I generally work on standard frame sizes. 8” x 10”, 10” x 12” and A4 are the most popular. I can go up and down in size to suit your budget, If you’d like me to work on a non standard size, no problem!

  • Certainly. That’s usually how I work., though no blurry photos please.

  • Yes, within reason, and I’m good at it! As long as the photos are taken from similar angles.

  • I’m happy to work from a sitting if the logistics work.

  • I LOVE doing caricatures! These aren’t an artwork I do quickly, live or on the spot. I like to gather information, personal jokes/likes/symbols and put them all together to tell a story, usually involving some high jinks and of course humour!
    I ask my client to send me photos of the subject(s), along with some personal jokes/likes/symbols, and I’ll work away to create a fun composition and narrative.

    Price depends on size, number of subject(s), medium and detail.

  • My wedding dress illustrations are mainly sketched in graphite pencil. You can choose a single view of the dress (either front or back), or a mirror image (both front and back) which includes the shoes and bouquet.

    Single - 8” x 10” = €165
    Mirror - 10 × 12” = €200

    Price includes postage within the ROI & UK.

    Frame not included.

    I’m always happy to discuss extra personal touches. Quotes can also be provided to have it sketched in colour, and/or have the groom’s suit included.

    You can also choose to have a Wedding Dress Portrait, which includes the face and figure of the bride in a fashion illustration style.
