Charlie's Missus

Whisper the pony

My painting of a handsome pony, commissioned by a local lady for her daughter’s Christmas present.

Family Photoshoot

A recent shoot with my friend Nicola and her gorgeous family. Thornley Woods provided us with a fabulous autumn backdrop and the little ones were ace, striking some fabulous poses for me. The littlest one had a definite liking for my camera, a future Annie Leibovitz perhaps!

… had a very shiny nose!

Just completed my new Christmas card range, each individually hand drawn and hand stamped. There are four in the range: Red Nosed Reindeer, Partridge in a Pear Tree, Little Donkey and Rockin Robin.

You can buy them from me direct, or come and find me at a Christmas Market.

Vintage Shakespeare Photo Album

I was recently commissioned to create a bespoke photo album, customised with pages from a vintage copy of Romeo and Juliet (a 1923 complete works edition printed for Selfridges to be exact) and little hearts made from fabric remnants, inspired by my LOVE canvases.

Created as a gift from a groom to his bride, how lovely!

Line up

My film cameras.

Vintage pearl and lace

Belle Bridal magazine are currently featuring my recent photoshoot, styled by Your Personal Touch.

Shooting in the wine cellar at Jesmond Dene house lent us an intimate romantic ambience (though I was slightly concerned I might knock over one of the suitably expensive bottles!).

Sam

Another canine commission, and what a fine beast he is.

He’s quite dinky at 6”x4” (the picture, not the dog, folks).

A pencilled pug.

Take a look at recent commissions,

then,

commission me!

Love ya.

The very lovely Halo are showcasing my artwork in a few weeks time.

Halo is a gift shop / coffee shop / book shop in Whitley Bay, so get yourself down to there on Saturday 27th August, 10am - 4pm. I’ll be there all day, with marvellous paintings, photography and mixed media artwork for your walls.

The hardest thing about doing markets is spending five hours looking across at fellow artists’ clever bits and bobs, and wanting to spend ALL YOUR TAKINGS on them!

And I suspect this Saturday will be just as tempting, as I do my first Holy Biscuit Market, with Designers Marketplace! Whoop!

Looks like it’s going to be a great day. I’ll be set up with my pictures, and I’d love to say hi, so please do pop along.

It’s this Saturday, opposite The Biscuit Factory, 11am-4pm, £1 entry.
