Private work / Portraiture & painting

Made
for one.

A private painting begins with a person, a place, or a particular idea worth keeping.

Selected examples of commissioned practice
An individual approach

Portraits and larger-scale paintings are considered selectively — each one shaped around the subject, the setting and the intention behind it.

01 / People

Portraiture with presence.

A portrait is more than a likeness. Gesture, light and atmosphere allow an individual character to emerge.

02 / Companions

Character in colour.

Portraiture can be intimate and vivid — attentive to the recognisable personality of a much-loved companion.

Not a standard order.
A singular conversation.

Commissions are considered individually, including portraiture and paintings intended for private interiors. Scope, timing and price are discussed only after the initial enquiry.
