Winnie-The-Pooh Bedroom and En-suite



 

A busy week in London hand painting a Winnie-the-pooh bedroom for a special little guy! The Winnie-the-pooh theme runs right across all three walls, framed around a tent bed. Also I hand painted cabinet doors for the en-suite bathroom, which were then varnished. To finish off I scattered little bumblebees everywhere! The client was so pleased.

Calming Magnolia Canvas



I painted this piece of artwork for a hallway to create calm and beauty. I kept neutral tones to suit the home, using an off white background lifted the white magnolia flowers. I chose to paint the magnolia flower as it one of my favourite trees, full of beauty and grace. The flowering of the magnolia tree is something I look forward to ever year.

Dr Seuss Canvas


Have an empty stairwell? why not have your favourite quotes from Dr Seuss hand painted on a 3 meter long canvas, to give you the encouragement you need as you go down those stairs to start your day!! My client did:) Such a brilliant idea!

 The background of the canvas was painted to match the wall colour (The Little Greene Paint Company – Limestone) and then I hand painted all the quotes in black with Dr Seuss at the base.

This was painted for ‘Ensoul – Interior Architecture’, in Spencer Park, Wandsworth.

Little Girls Room - Blossom Tree Wall Mural



Such a simple yet very effective design. I hand painted a blossom using soft tones, painting the blossom tree in a corner to stretch over the bed and then wooden letters with ribbon were pinned to the branch.  Hand painted by Carren Lu (Artistic Touch)

Dining Room Feature Wall




‘Who needs wallpaper when you’ve got a paint brush?’ I’ve always wanted to paint an enlarged wallpaper design onto a wall and I thought the dining room would be the best place for it. I chose a floral design and brought in the colours from the living room through to the dining room to make the design flow.

Create Calm with a Splash!


 
Finally having a home means you can be creative and use all those ideas that you’ve been saving. I used dusty blues and mochas to create warmth in the living room. I hand painted this canvas to pull this scheme together.

Paddington Bear Bedroom


I absolutely love this room!  I think Paddington Bear is a classic theme for a childrens room, perfect for a boy or girl.  I hand painted this 3 meter high Paddington Bear Mural for a little girls room in Putney for April Hamilton Interiors.  I worked with the colours of the fabrics used for the scheme to make sure the whole design pulled together. 

Hand Painted Blossom

 

 
A Hand Painted blossom branch for a Master Bedroom in Putney, complete with silver leaf on the branches and tiny Swarovski crystals in the flowers. The overall design adds a touch of elegance to the room.  The silver leaf mirrors the fabric used on the bed and the down lighters in the ceiling catch the crystals on the blossom mural.  I think this mural could be used in any room, perfect for a dining room and of course a bedroom.

Family Guy - Family Portrait



I had a client who loves 'Family Guy' and came up with an ingenious idea for a Christmas present. He wanted to have a family portrait of his family drawn in the same style as 'Family Guy', including nosey neighbour and every little detail ...that made it his family.
I hand drew the design from many photo's, then scanned it into the computer. I coloured it all using Photoshop and then got a company to print in onto canvas.
I was so pleased with the result and so was the client!
 

Horse Jumping


For all those horse lovers, here is a mural that I painted which is very clever.  Use the head board as  a horse jump, it's very effective. Also this mural is perfect for a little girl right to her teens.  The use of violets and greys keep the design modern and is suitable for any style of home.

Jessie J Mural


A photograph of the Jessie J room complete with a hand painted wall mural of Jessie J finished off with Swarovski crystals on her earrings. - 4.68 x 2.4m painted in 2 days with Dulux Matt Emulsion.

Oriental Abstract Painting



I love this style of art, simple yet very powerful.  'Inspired by oriental artwork which used inks and strong brush strokes' I ended up painting four of these for a living area and I loved how the use of fabrics and accessories worked with this artwork.  I added a clear varnish to the finished piece, which enhanced the depth of the black and then the client had each piece framed in a antique silver frame. Canvas - 120 x 90cm
