I work in many techniques — from classic pastel and charcoal to modern digital and acrylic. Every portrait is not a copy but a character, light and a person’s story.

I take commissions for portraits from photos, birthday caricatures, family paintings and gifts. From 1 day, with worldwide delivery.

How to order

Four simple steps — no endless back-and-forth.

  1. Send a photo

    One or more clear photos and a few words about how you picture the portrait.

  2. We discuss the details

    Technique, size, deadline and price. I’ll suggest what works best as a gift.

  3. I create the portrait

    From 1 day, depending on the technique and complexity.

  4. You receive your artwork

    A digital file or the original — delivered worldwide.

Caring for your artwork

Eight simple rules will keep your framed artwork looking its best for years.

  1. Avoid heat

    Do not hang artwork above radiators and protect it from sudden temperature changes. Normal range: 12–25 °C.

  2. Beware of humidity

    Humidity buckles paper and encourages mould. Normal range: 40–60%; wait six months before hanging on fresh plaster.

  3. Hang at eye level

    Align several pictures along their top edges or centres. Laying them out on the floor first makes it easier.

  4. Hang securely

    Hooks, fittings and wire must be rated for the weight of the framed work — especially in a child’s room.

  5. Clean with care

    Dust with a clean, soft, dry cloth — no water or cleaning products. Apply glass cleaner to the cloth, not to the glass.

  6. Inspect regularly

    Fading, spots or sagging canvas — time to visit a framing workshop. Restretching is recommended every five years.

  7. Mind the light

    Do not hang artwork opposite a window: direct sunlight fades colours. UV-filtering glass helps protect it.

  8. Transport with care

    Hold the frame on both sides. Store pictures upright, glass facing glass.
