Commission: T-Shirt Design

This super fun commission is a t-shirt design for a group of Australians after their safari in Kenya.

The collective noun for a group of guinea fowl is a 'confusion'.

This group nicknamed themselves 'Craig and the Confusion'! he!he!

"Wow!  That is absolutely fabulous, thank you!" Vanessa

Commission: An Aunt's 70th Birthday

Using memories from a Spanish holiday where the streets were shaded by umbrellas strung across the streets. 

"It's absolutely wonderful thank you so much." Lucie

Rim Tim Tagi Dim!

 What a week for Croatia!  They absolutely know how to support and celebrate - I loved the thrill of the ride!  Baby Lasagna - superb entertainer; traditional with a modern twist - Croatia's entry into Eurovision 2024.  Won the hearts of the people the world over.  

"Meow cat, please meow back! 😸" 

Commission: Wedding Anniversary Portrait

There are interesting finds in the woods around here! All sorts of mushrooms and fungi, orchards of fruit and nut trees...if you find a sweet chestnut then you keep it secret for chestnut foraging is quite a sport come the autumn! This is a commission from a fellow dog walker for her husband on their wedding anniversary.  

"Good morning, I gave him the painting yesterday.  He was surprised and liked it very much. 😊 I'm also very happy how it looks like 😊" Ana

Circus Poster new vs old

Roll up! Roll up! Many years ago I received a commission to design a poster for a circus hat party in Nairobi, Kenya.  I still remember putting it all together very clearly... one of my most fun commissions of that time. 

Here is a new design for this circus theme - revisited...

↑ new vs old ↓

Just because...

I love the early years of burlesque and have had this floating around my head for a few years now.  I have finally FINALLY put brush to paper and here she is.  My lovely cheeky ostrich!

Commission: Wedding Portrait

A simple illustration for a wedding gift.  The groom hailing from Šibenik represented by the Ivano Castle which overlooks the town. And she was born in Varaždin, represented by its Varaždinska feudal fortress. 

The grapes and olive branch represent the wine and oil growing tradition and the rosemary is a wedding symbol. The bride and groom had a sprig out to their wedding guests as a welcome corsage. 

"Svidja mi se 😊😍" Ana

Commission: Extended Family Portrait for 60th Wedding Anniversary

A super busy illustration for a couple celebrating their diamond wedding anniversary with their family around a table full of baked goodies. 

'Moj lipi andjele' "My beautiful angel' is this gentleman's favourite song. He is a retired doctor and a keen fisherman. Whilst his elegant wife enjoys her cooking.

"We love it!!!!!" Andrea

Commission: Portrait for a 5th Birthday Girl

 A fairy princess casting spells on her fireman sibling. Oh the joys of being 5! 

"Wow. it is beautiful 😘😘😘 Hvalaaaa 😘" Danica  

Commission: 40th Birthday Portrait

A portrait marking a 40th year, a beautiful family and a passion for long distance running races.  The Učka Trail along this mountain spine in Istria caught my eye.  Incredible scenery!

"Wow.  It's Perfect" Marko

Feeling honoured to illustrate another momentous event for this family:

First a baby then the wedding!

Perfect timing, looking forward to receiving the original!" Alban

Commission: Portrait for a Wedding Gift

Brief for a wedding portrait: "They like travelling, drinking coffee in a cafe, watching stand up comedians, they work together in the University of mech. engineering." plus some relevant photographs with all the back and forth on WhatsApp. 

This is how it can be done! 

"Wow. Perfect thank you" Marko
