A little about me..... "A portrait is such a special, personal gift, to be treasured"

I'm a professional artist based in Derbyshire, in the United Kingdom.
I've had a real love of art, particularly portraiture, from childhood, and was rarely seen without a sheet of paper and my pencils from a very early age.
I created my very fist pet portrait at the age of 5, and have never looked back!

I specialize in realistic family & pet portraits in both graphite and coloured pencils.
My portraits are hand drawn, starting from a blank sheet of paper, and are not computer generated in any way.
Each portrait is highly detailed, and takes many hours to create.  
I take great pride in achieving a good likeness, and capuring the very essence of the character of the subject.
I would love to be able to turn your photographs in to a beautiful, unique work of art.

I have satisfied customers from all over the world, resulting in many recommendations and repeat customers.
