Pricing starts at $600

Pick me for:

Love painting with oils on canvas, drawing, sketching and illustration. In terms of size, the smallest acceptable canvas is 30x40cm, the largest is up to 100cmx90cm. I love painting cityscapes and landscapes, portraits and abstracts. I'm very versatile and experienced, having been doing this for quite a while. I love sending updates and progress pics but I'm happy for you to set the level of communication required. Above all else, love jobs where I can be imaginative and creative to bring ideas life. I will always provide a free quote before starting work, which details everything included, such as materials, labour, delivery cost &c. In terms of budget: terms are a 20% deposit for the initial design (i.e. the drawing, for example on canvas) and I require the 80% outstanding amount to start painting. I calculate the quote based on cost of materials, labour and BAA's cut + tax, so as a rule of thumb, the larger and more complex the project, the higher the cost and vice versa. When your project is complete you can decide whether to have it delivered or pick it up from my studio at Bighouse Arts. An oil painting can literally last for centuries and it represents the best of us, the finest emotions, experiences, memories and feelings in life; it is a beautiful object to treasure for many years to come. By commissioning local, independent artists like me through Book An Artist, you directly support the artist and a wider community of artists too! Contact me for a free quote.

Steven painted the image of my fiance and I at the place we got engaged in central Melbourne. It was great to work with Steve - he helped coach me through my options and choices, and was incredibly timely, responsive and clear in his communication, plus he’s just an all-round lovely guy. Cheers Steve!

Rebecca painted a mural on our pocket doors and we were absolutely thrilled with the end result. Throughout the process Rebecca was faultless, she took time to fully understand what we were trying to achieve, prepared options for us to consider and was able to create a unique piece beyond our imagination of what could be achieved in the space. She was professional, always prompt in her responses and her commitment, and attention to detail on the day of the installation was fantastic. We would not hesitate to recommend Rebecca to others. She was great.

It was a pleasure to work with Alex for our recent event with Remington, she did an amazing job from start to finish. The team were so impressed with the illustrations that Alex created for over 50 guests and were chuffed that she went above and beyond to send us the extra illustrations outside of the timescale. I would definitely recommend Alex and I look forward to working with her again in the future.

I recently had the opportunity to engaged Meera's to work on an art piece to commemorate the drawing down of one of the RSAF’s work-horse. I provided photos of the Super Puma helicopter and share stories of the Super Puma helicopter’s operations with her and she was able to create a beautiful art piece with it. I appreciates the Meera’s ability to capture the essence of the Super Puma Helicopter’s operations through this art piece. Highly recommended for anyone who would like to engage someone to create a oil painting art work.

Get a pencil sketch drawing

Looking to capture a moment in time through art? Look no further than the world of sketching and drawing. From pencil sketches to pen sketches, and everything in between, there are countless ways to bring your vision to life. In this article, we'll explore some of the different types of sketches and drawings, and show you how you can turn your favorite photos into beautiful works of art.

Sketches and Drawings: Exploring Different Techniques

Sketching and drawing are two distinct art forms that both involve putting pen or pencil to paper. Sketching is often done quickly and loosely, with an emphasis on capturing the essence of the subject rather than creating a detailed, finished piece. In contrast, drawing typically involves more time and effort, and focuses on creating a polished, fully-realized image.

Sketch of all, flower sketches, anime sketches, and more

One popular type of sketching is urban sketching, which involves capturing the unique character and energy of all through sketches and drawings. Whether you're sketching a bustling street scene or a quiet park, urban sketching is a great way to connect with your surroundings and create something truly special.

If you're looking for something a bit more specific, consider flower sketching. This delicate and intricate art form involves capturing the beauty and complexity of flowers through detailed sketches and drawings. From roses to daisies to lilies, there are countless flowers to choose from, each with its own unique beauty. Another popular type of sketching is anime sketching, which involves capturing the distinct style and energy of Japanese animation. Whether you're a fan of classic anime or modern hits, anime sketching is a great way to bring your favorite characters to life and explore your own creative potential.

One popular technique is photo to sketch, which involves using software to convert your photos into hand-drawn sketches. This can be a great way to experiment with different styles and techniques, and create a truly unique piece of art. So whether you're interested in sketching flowers, creating a pen sketch of London, or exploring the world of anime sketching, there are countless ways to explore the world of sketching and drawing. With a bit of practice and patience, you can create beautiful, one-of-a-kind works of art that you'll treasure for years to come.
