Original hand-painted commissions inspired by places that matter.
House & Building Portrait Commissions
Bespoke House & Building Portraits
Every building has a story.
Whether it’s a much-loved family home, a historic property, a cherished business or a place filled with special memories, a bespoke portrait is a unique way to preserve its character for generations to come.
Working in pen and watercolour, I create original architectural illustrations that capture not only the details of a building but also its atmosphere, personality and sense of place. Every artwork is individually hand drawn and painted, making each commission completely unique.
Whether you are celebrating a family home, marking a retirement, commemorating a special occasion or searching for a thoughtful and personal gift, I would be delighted to create a piece that is both meaningful and lasting.
How to Commission Your Artwork
Commissioning a portrait is simple.
All I need to get started is:
- A clear, high-resolution photograph of the building.
- Any information you would like me to know about its history or significance.
- Details of any particular features you would like included or emphasised.
If you’re unsure whether your photograph is suitable, feel free to email it to me and I’ll be happy to advise.

Every commission is created with great care and attention to detail.
- A clear reference photograph is required before work begins.

- Most commissions are completed within approximately one week, although larger or more detailed pieces may require additional time.
- If your artwork is needed for a birthday, anniversary, retirement or other special occasion, please let me know when booking and I will always do my very best to meet your deadline.
