In July 2000 I formed a working partnership with artist Vivienne Francis, and have worked with her on various art commissions, including a two-month contract to decorate several rooms in a large private villa in Beaulieu, South of France. Furniture is sometimes painted in conjunction with mural work, and a wide range of specialist paint effects are also undertaken, including stencilling, graining, marbling, antiqueing, dragging, ragging, colourwashing (oil and water-base), and Gilding. We also do Portrait commissions, Human and Animal, in oil on fine grade linen canvas, conte crayon or watercolour, and a variety of reproduction paintings for example Victorian still lives or hand-coloured engravings of animals. I have also done a series of Watercolours of properties for Estate Agents like Knight, Frank and Rutley, and painted for Hygrove Kitchens in Wimbledon.

Murals are painted in any style, classical or modern, from Italian renaissance or Islamic to Japanese stencil to Art Deco.
