'What a wonderful way to hold on to romance. Really very beautiful, truly stunning……’

Instead of your beautiful dress being packed away for ever, I will paint an atmospheric painting of it, which can be hung on a wall in your home for all to see.
You can send your wedding dress to me from anywhere in the world!
(I use a secure courier service accustomed to transporting special items, so that your dress will be safe and secure throughout the journey).
Within a few weeks you will be the owner of a fabulous oil painting, to be framed in a style of your choice.
Or you may bring it in person, by appointment, and
visit my studio in Oxfordshire.
I set the dress up in my studio, (see below), in an environment or background which compliments it the best. Then I make a preliminary ‘sketch’ or two, to get the 'feel' of it, and decide on the best ‘pose’ and composition. (This may include the veil, the petticoat, shoes, jewellery perhaps - depending on whatever looks good for the painting, and on the scale and size of the canvas).

I take photos for reference, (click on each for details), and then I start work on the painting - partly from life, and partly from my photographs, and in roughly 4 - 6 weeks I will present you with a fabulous oil painting on canvas.
Along the way, I will also send regular updates or photos of 'work in progress', (or not, if you'd like a surprise!), so that you can see how it's shaping up.
When the painting is finished, it can then be framed to fit with your home style. I can also give advice on hanging and framing.
The painting can also be scanned and the image printed onto thank you cards, or made into smaller prints (A4, A3, or A2) to give as gifts to members of the couple's families....

talk it over!
