FAMILY HISTORY PROJECT

One of my main projects for my degree was painting scenes from my family history. The above painting shows different people from my ancestry in a setting which was part of their life. This painting is approximately 3 metres x 1 metre in size and is a trypich produced over 3 canvases.

I accept commissions for people (on a smaller scale than this) based on their family history to produce a family heirloom painted in oil. The price starts at around £400 (and with no upper limit!!) depending on size and how much work is involved.

In addition to this I have produced a series of collages and prints, a selection of which are shown below. These can also be produced as commissions with images of the client's own family history. Prices start around £200 according to the size and the amount of work.
