Welcome to my Blog

I'm a professional award winning artist from NSW Australia.

I bring your photos to life in paintings that will touch your heart!

A photo freezes a moment while a painting touches hearts.

I paint from photographs but the portraits I create in Pastel and Oil are more than just a copy of your photo.
I will have a likeness but your portrait will be much more colourful,alive and three dimensional than the photo.

You can have me create your own special portrait.
You supply the photos and then you can plan the great unveiling!


I have original animal and landscape artworks available for sale on my website.

I've started this Blog to give you a bit more insight into the creative process behind my portraits and so I can ramble on a bit more about life in general.

In memory of Cassie

When Alysha contacted me she wanted me to create a portrait of her mother's Rottweiler Cassie as a surprise mother's day gift.
Cassie had passed away 6 months ago.
I finished Cassie's portrait today and sent a photo of it it away for approval .
 Alysha said it was ok to post her on the internet as her mum isn't internet savvy so we have no worries about her accidently stumbling across the portrait!
 Here is the portrait and what Alysha said when she saw the photo.

'The portrait is stunning! I can't get over how amazing it is!
Thanks, you've done such a wonderful job!'

An update on Cassie-

'Mum absolutely loved the painting.  It brought her to tears, in a good way.
Thank you for painting such a wonderful image of Cassie.  Mum said you captured Cassie's kindness in her eyes and loved the detail on her nose which demonstrated she must have just been digging in the garden and burying her bone just before the photo was taken.'
