Happy midweek Wednesday 🤍

I’ve started a new artwork that I’ll be taking to Crufts with me as one of my live drawing pieces.

This beautiful reference was kindly gifted by Michael Lee, and would you believe it’s been sitting on my ‘to do’ list for over two years. Not one to be rushed, am I?

This is another greyscale piece, created using coloured pencils in a soft grey and black palette. I think I may be entering my 50 shades of grey era… and honestly, I’m really enjoying it.

There’s something so timeless and soulful about greyscale. It lets me focus completely on the emotion, the light, and every tiny detail.

I hope you like it so far. This original artwork will be available to purchase, along with a small run of limited edition prints.

I’m thrilled to share beautiful Bella 🤍

Now gifted… and what a secret mission this was.

My lovely customer wanted to surprise her husband for Valentine’s Day and his birthday, so together we embarked on a top-secret plan.

She was amazing and kept the secret so well — although she admitted the guessing game nearly got the better of her towards the end!

When he finally opened his gift, his face went from quizzical… to completely crumpled with emotion. His wife followed… and then, seeing their reaction, so did I.

Moments like this are everything.

I can honestly say I have the best job in the world, and I’m forever thankful to be trusted with such precious memories.

Bella, forever captured in pencil.

Hoping you’re having a super Sunday 💚

I’m so delighted to share beautiful Mince Pie with you. She’s a stunning Norwegian Forest cat, with the most soulful eyes and that glorious, flowing coat. Have you ever come across this breed before?

Her lovely human has trusted me with several commissions over the years, and every one of her cats has been truly breathtaking… and the kittens? Absolutely irresistible.

It’s always such an honour to capture these precious companions and their unique spirit on paper. I hope you love Mince Pie as much as I do.

Thought we’d have a three year throwback! 

These days, weeks, months and years are rattling by! 
Sometimes I wish I could slow down time, just so I could fit more into my day. 
But the reality of that is I should just get up earlier! 

Happy Friday folks
