How It Works

1

Share Your Vision

Tell me what you're dreaming of. Send reference photos, describe the feeling you're after, share color preferences. The more details, the better. Use the contact form or email me directly.

2

Consultation & Quote

We'll discuss your idea, I'll suggest size options and approaches, and provide a quote (£20-60 depending on size and complexity). Turnaround time is typically 2-3 weeks.

3

Deposit & Creation

A 50% deposit secures your spot in my schedule. Then I get to work, sending progress photos along the way so you're part of the journey.

4

Frame Hunting

While the paint dries, I'm hunting through Norfolk's antique shops for the perfect vintage frame to complement your piece. Trust my judgment or share preferences.

5

Final Reveal & Delivery

I'll share photos of your completed miniature. Once you approve and pay the remaining 50%, it ships to you with a certificate of authenticity and care instructions.

Common Questions

Can I request a specific frame style?

Absolutely! While I love the hunt and usually trust my frame instincts, if you have preferences (gold vs silver, ornate vs simple, etc.), I'll keep that in mind during my antique shop adventures.

What if I don't love the final result?

I send progress photos throughout, so you're never surprised. However, because each commission is custom and one-of-a-kind, I can't offer returns. That said, I'm committed to your happiness—let's talk if you have concerns.

How detailed can you get at this scale?

Surprisingly detailed! The chiaroscuro technique and patient brushwork allow for incredible nuance even in the tiniest pieces. However, photographic realism isn't the goal—artistic interpretation in Renaissance style is.

Can I commission pet portraits?

Yes! Send clear reference photos showing your pet's personality. I focus on capturing essence rather than exact likeness—think more "spirit of your dog" than photograph.

Do you ship internationally?

Yes, though shipping costs vary. These tiny treasures travel well, carefully wrapped in recycled packaging. International shipping usually adds £10-15.
