Bespoke Art Services

Art can be deeply personal. It can honour a memory, celebrate a bond, or bring a meaningful idea to life. My bespoke artwork offerings are built around care, collaboration, and storytelling.

Whether it's a pencil or watercolour portrait of a beloved pet, a family scene filled with warmth and connection, or a one-of-a-kind piece inspired by a verse, a place, or a moment, each work is created to reflect what matters most to you.

I also offer optional consultations where we can explore your ideas and bring clarity to your vision.

Pet & Family Portraits

Pencil or Watercolour

Whether it’s a beloved pet or your whole family, these portraits are about honouring connection, capturing not just how your loved ones look, but what they mean to you.

Pets are more than companions. They are family, comfort, and often a lifeline in difficult seasons. My pet portraits aim to reflect that bond, portraying each animal’s unique expression, softness, and spirit with care and attention.

Family portraits, whether traditional or creatively styled, celebrate the closeness, individuality, and shared history between people. I aim to capture the feeling behind the faces, the love, the laughter, and the small details that make your people yours.

These artworks are thoughtful keepsakes, often becoming meaningful gifts or modern heirlooms. Prints can also be arranged, making it easy to share the portrait with family and friends.

Sentimental Artworks

Pencil, Pen, Watercolour, Acrylic, or Oil

Some stories are hard to put into words. That’s where bespoke sentimental or memory-based artworks come in, pieces that give visual form to something meaningful, symbolic, or deeply personal.

These artworks are created in close consultation with you and might include:

  • An artistic interpretation of a Bible verse

  • An illustration of your first home

  • A painting of a favourite place or memory

  • A tribute to a special meal, meaningful drink, or shared moment

Each piece is entirely unique, thoughtfully crafted to honour your story in a way that feels authentic and lasting. You can choose from a range of mediums, depending on the mood, style, and timeline you have in mind.

Prints can also be arranged if you’d like to share the artwork more widely as gifts, keepsakes, or cards for special occasions.
