Bespoke Artwork
It all begins with a memory. Maybe you want to capture that rush of excitement you felt when you first saw an exotic car flash by. Maybe you want to remind yourself about the gorgeous classic that’s rarely seen and hidden away in your garage. Maybe you don’t get to see your boat that often, as it’s moored in a distant marina. Whatever it is, the way you visualise your dreams and memories can make all the difference. I can paint it for you.
Capture the emotion
Why not commission a painting for a special occasion or a gift - or to make a bold statement in your home, office or man-cave! Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way I can tell your story can make all the difference.
Murals
Sometimes, a poster just isn’t enough! Why not commission me to paint a full-size image in your home or office?

All my drawings and paintings are done with the greatest care and enthusiasm, with attention to detail. The particular features of the owner’s vehicle such as accessories, number plates, wheels etc. will all be noted before beginning the work. These make great surprise gifts, and all I need is a photo to be able to make a work of art that often outlasts the ownership of the vehicle itself!
My prices are as accurate as possible, but variations will of course occur depending on the detail involved. A smooth sports car is naturally faster to draw than a dragster with an exposed engine. Contact me and email a picture and I can give you a price immediately.
For those with a larger budget, a huge canvas painting will be the ultimate expression of their love for classic or collectible vehicles. For these works, I can visit the vehicle, take photos and discuss all the possibilities with the owner before commencing the painting.
