Hand Painted Illustrations
For people who refuse to look like everyone else. I draw the thing only you could own. By hand, pencil first, ink last.
Start a commission →“People connect
with people.”
The vows. The first dance. The place card slipped into a coat pocket. I paint them by hand, so you keep them for good.
No copies. No templates. No shortcuts.
It all starts with a nib, a brush and the hills outside my window.
For people who refuse to look like everyone else. I draw the thing only you could own. By hand, pencil first, ink last.
Start a commission →Your invitations set the tone before anyone arrives. I paint them around your flowers, your venue, your story. No two are alike.
Enquire for your date →I set up easel and ink at your event. I paint you and your guests as the night unfolds. You leave with a keepsake, made live.
Book a live session →Branding, logos, packaging, print and digital. The commercial side of the studio, made by the same hand as everything else. Built to set you apart.
See the work →Spend an afternoon making something with your own hands. Ink, wine, good company, in a place worth the drive. You take home what you paint.
See the next session →Take a piece of the studio home. Real prints on good paper, painted with the same care as any commission. For your wall, not your screen.
Coming soonI believe the things worth keeping are the ones a person actually touched. So I work slowly, on purpose. No team. No templates. Just me, painting the way I have since I was small, in dip pen, ink and watercolour.
I have painted live for Tasting Australia. I drew the Sporting Collection wine labels. I turned scent into ink for SIUNO Fragrances. Different rooms, one hand, one reason: to leave behind what a machine never can.

then let this be made by a person.
Spend a day in the orchard.
Walk the grounds at Glen Ewin. Forage for figs, seed pods, whatever the season leaves behind. Then sit down and paint it with me, in dip pen, ink and watercolour.
Dip pen, ink and watercolours, step by step. No experience necessary.
Historical stories and natural treasures along the way.
The perfect creative companion for the afternoon.
A new skill to carry with you, long after the day.
Three hours of guided illustration, an estate walk with historical insight, all materials and tuition, a glass of bubbles and a grazing board.
You bring the curiosity,
we provide the rest.
Private bookings are always open. Tell me the group you have in mind, and I will shape a day around it.
A pop-up in the heart of the city. Watch me paint live, browse original work and prints, and say hello in person. No booking needed, just wander in.
From the save the date to the menu on the table, I paint every piece by hand. One story, start to finish. Yours alone.
Enquire for your dateNo noise. No weekly emails. Just a note when there is fresh work, a new print, or a session opening up. Leave whenever you like.
