A Gift for LiFE

As a professional artist, the majority of my work is commission related for gifts. However, I am now expanding into oil painting animals and scenery; the elephants you see here I finished this Summer. Whilst we tend to replace old photos in a frame, original artwork never dates. Drawings and paintings are much more personal and make the perfect memento! 

Your BELOVED Pet

We all love our pets as they are very much part of the family; what better way to have them showcased than in an original piece of artwork, either as a drawing or painting. There is a good selection of my work on this site for you to browse through – just contact me and we can discuss your requirements in detail!

A LOVED ONE

I have drawn many people during my career and I am renowned for capturing an extraordinary likeness and the character of the subject drawn or painted. The drawing you see here is of my late mother. I drew her in a matter of days in order to have a printed copy featured on the front page of the Order of Service at her funeral. I have the original drawing on a wall in my kitchen, next to a portrait I did of my father for the same reason.  I look at them both fondly every day!

THE CreativE process

Initially, this is most certainly a two-way process! Many of you will not have commissioned a piece of artwork before so it can therefore be a daunting thought. However, I am here to help and guide you through this most satisfying journey. Please see the step by step process by clicking the tab below.

“Carole has drawn both our boys and we can’t get over the likeness! She really has captured their character - her work is almost photographic. Thank you!”
