“This plate was made <strong>to</strong> celebrate <strong>the</strong> publishing<br />

of my friend Lucy Durneen’s book ‘Wild Gestures’.<br />

Lucy has a black dress with white spots on it<br />

which I’ve represented here on my plate”.<br />

“I was commissioned this large painting for a chic<br />

apartment. My client was very specific about what he<br />

wanted. Although very different <strong>to</strong> my usual style, I<br />

enjoyed <strong>the</strong> challenge of something new”.<br />

rose petals for a UK couple (& <strong>the</strong>ir child), <strong>to</strong> be ready for<br />

when <strong>the</strong>y return from <strong>the</strong>ir honeymoon”.<br />

“I have been commissioned <strong>to</strong> paint a book,<br />

all original paintings of a local, ancient house<br />

family allowed me <strong>to</strong> draw and paint in <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

garden on an open day”.<br />
