A few answers to common questions about my paintings, purchasing original artwork, shipping and commissions. If there’s anything else you’d like to know, please get in touch.
-
Yes. Unless clearly stated otherwise, the paintings available through this website are original works created by me in my studio in Kurrajong, New South Wales. I work primarily in oils and acrylics, with occasional watercolour and mixed media.
-
Paintings currently available to purchase are listed on the Artworks for Sale page. Works shown in the Gallery may include paintings that have already been sold and are displayed as part of my broader portfolio.
-
Yes. Paintings can be shipped throughout Australia. Each artwork is carefully packed to protect it during transport.
Shipping costs may vary depending on the size, weight, framing and destination of the work and will be shown or confirmed when you purchase.
-
Yes. Collection from the Kurrajong/Hawkesbury area of New South Wales can usually be arranged by appointment. Please contact me after purchase if you would prefer to collect your artwork.
-
International shipping may be available depending on the size and destination of the artwork. If you are outside Australia and interested in purchasing a painting, please contact me so I can confirm shipping options and costs.
-
This varies from work to work. The individual artwork description will state whether a painting is framed or unframed.
Where a work is framed, I will also include information about the frame in the listing.
-
Colours can appear slightly different depending on your computer, phone or screen settings. Original paintings also have texture, surface variation and subtleties that are often more apparent in person.
-
I occasionally accept commissions where the subject and project are a good fit for my work. If you have something in mind, please contact me with some information about the subject, preferred size and approximate timeframe.
A commission is still an original artwork rather than a reproduction of an existing painting, so there will always be some freedom in how I interpret the subject.
-
I may revisit a subject, but I don't make exact copies of original paintings. Each work is individually painted and will have its own character, colour and variation.
If there is a sold work you particularly love, you are welcome to contact me about creating something inspired by a similar subject or composition. It may also depend how much I enjoyed painting it first time around.
-
Yes, photographic references can part of my process, particularly for birds, animals, travel subjects and landscapes. I could not work without my iPad to enlarge and observe detail.
-
Yes. The Gallery contains a selection of past and sold paintings across Australian birds, still life, botanicals, landscapes, figurative work and travel-inspired subjects.
-
I don’t currently sell prints but am considering it for the futuei the demand is there, along with greeting cards and other merchandise.
