My portraits are created to capture the look and personality of the sitter. I also try to ensure that each piece is a balanced work of art.
COST
Prices start at £375 (up to around £1500 for full-colour oil) and depend on how much time is involved – more complex images may cost more. I ask for 50% upfront and the remainder when we are all happy with the piece.
PROCESS
I have to work from photos and can work from photos supplied or I can do a photoshoot (at extra cost).

“Patrick is a huge talent. He has not only captured our beloved pet he has captured their enthusiasm for life!!
Patrick is a perfectionist – his eye for detail is acute as is his dedication to deliver the very best. He worked endlessly hard, including me every step of the way. I was touched.
I cannot wait for Patrick to create our next painting!”

You know you’ve basically given me a family heirloom??
Amazing. Thanks so much!” Dan
“I think the boys are beyond wonderful — I honestly can’t believe the likeness, they’re just fantastic” Mel
“Patrick made a beautiful portrait of my daughter and I, he is incredibly talented and the whole process was so lovely.
He communicated with me throughout so I felt so involved in the creative design and sent regular updates and pictures throughout. When i saw it face to face it literally made me cry. He captured so much emotion – such a special picture.
We will 100% use him again and would recommend in a heart beat. If you want something super personal then he is your guy!!!” Alice
