This avocado green trimphone brings back strong memories of my teenage sister in the late 1970s - with Farah Fawcett hair flicks, sprawled across our swirly patterned brown stairs chatting to her friends for a LONG time - and mum going crazy because of the spiral cable across the hall...
and the telephone bill.
Remembering everyday things...
Let's discuss a personalised piece of art
Are you interested
in something specific?
CUSTOM HOUSE PORTRAITS
Our homes are full of memories and the backdrop to our lives - from when we are born, through childhood to when we get our own places as grown ups.

If you are interested in a custom house portrait, or another architectural portrait that has a special meaning, please get in touch and we can discuss the details.

We form attachments to places that are part of our lives.
Our childhood or family homes, the first place of our own, where we went to school, got married and even where we work.
If you are interested in a custom made piece of art,
please get in touch and we can discuss the details.
Clients commission my architectural portraits as gifts for retirement, anniversaries, weddings, housewarming celebrations, to remember a house they are leaving and other occasions.
Commissioning a home or building portrait of somewhere special is a personalised way of remembering that place. I can create custom portraits of family homes, shops, wedding venues, restaurants and other places that hold good memories.

Our personal connection with things can come from memories or feelings of familiarity.
Sometimes we love them for their gorgeous craftsmanship or how they symbolise the way we live.
