Landscapes
Welcome to my Landscape collection. Here
you can view my full range of Landscapes, all the paintings are
available as prints or greeting cards and the originals are available
where indicated.
The majority of my work is based around the St.Agnes area in Cornwall.
This is where I have lived since an early age and find that there
is just so much scope for an artist to explore, be it the sea, cliffs,
engine houses, or inland areas and picturesque cottages. I am adding
to the range with paintings from other areas around Cornwall and
with the new website there may be some from even wider areas in
the future so keep an eye out !
I have always had a love of the countryside, getting out into nature
at all hours of the day and capturing that unique moment frozen
in time, sometimes having to wait weeks and even months for the
perfect conditions to occur.
Medium used
My choice of medium at present for my landscapes is Acrylic on canvas
board. Acrylic is known to be a hard medium to work with due to
its very fast drying time. The technique I have developed can be
very time consuming, achieving depth to the colour, detail and softness
to the skies can be technically very challenging but very rewarding
when the final painting is achieved. More information on mediums,
inks and mounts.
Limited Editions
Limited edition prints are limited to 100, each are individually
numbered and signed.
Greeting Cards
All theses paintings are available as greeting cards. Click here

Landscape Commissions

that you’re specifically after, then as with my Pet Portraits

Landscape
Commissions.
I do have quite a large collection of reference images of St.
Agnes and its surrounding area as well as from other locations
around Cornwall. These you can view on request at our shop or
you may have an image that you would like me to work from.
However it is often the case that specific details are required
such as certain views, time of year and other elements that
will make the commission very personal, in this case, where
possible, I like to visit the location with you and discuss
your requirements, if this is not possible we can discuss your
requirements and I will then work on taking reference photos
for your approval.
Before undertaking the final work I proof the final image/layout
with you to make sure we both understand how the final painting
will look.
The cost of my commissions falls somewhere in the region of
10-20 % above the standard size originals I sell, the reason
for this is that commissions generally require more research
and planning to attain the required painting, so this does depend
on exactly what you require in terms of content, size etc but
does give you an idea. A deposit is required before work is
undertaken of at least 50% of the final amount.
Being a commission the framing can also be discussed and approved
prior to completion if required.
If you would like to discuss your requirements further then
please feel free to contact me on the available numbers.

Reference tips for Landscape
photographs
I work from photographs usually
7”x5” in size in either in digital or non-digital
form. For Landscapes, generally I can work from one image if
that image is clear enough and encompasses all the elements
you require, sometime its useful to just take as many as you
can, there may be some elements that you would like included
or omitted that aren’t in the main reference photo such
as extra foliage, subtle light differences etc.
If you already have reference available then you can either
email, in JPEG form or hard copy by Recorded or special delivery.
If you are unsure then please don’t hesitate in contacting
me. To download these tips, in PDF format, please click here.
