News — Commission

I have been working on a number of commissions recently and have particularly enjoyed this Stag Beetle, it has been an insect I have been longing to paint for a number of years, so am very happy to now have this to add to my bug collecton.

I have been working quickly on a cat commission for a birthday present, with one black and white moggy and one ginger.  It was quite a tricky task as I only had very small phone images to work from, but I'm happy with the outcome. Here is a snippet from the early workings.

I painted a special watercolour Dogtanian commission for my Godson's third birthday.  I hope he likes it!!

I was privately commissioned by a client to paint the outer and underwings of a Brown Hairstreak Butterfly and their eggs on a blackthorn bush, as a gift for a gentleman who worked with these beautiful creatures.  The following images are detailed close ups of the individual parts.
