About me...
I am a Bristol based artist and specialise in portraiture. My preferred medium is pastel, although I also work in acrylic and watercolour. I have worked on and off as an artist for over ten years and adore painting from life with as much detail as possible. Detail and light are the key to a lifelike painting in my eyes.
A typical portrait will take between 25 and 30 hours to complete so I normally work from well-lit photographs with a hot drink on one side of me and a tray of pastels balanced on the other. Even the most well behaved pet might find it a push to sit and stay for 25 hours...
