"Art has the power to reveal what familiarity hides from us, softly renewing how we experience our world. The significance of a time and place that's special to us echos in a painting, gently inviting us to visit again, to feel our way back there and remember, in a way that a photograph never can."
More About Architectural Drawings & Paintings
Original Line Drawings: Working from your photographs I create a fully hand drawn line drawing. I emphasise this as there are some products available that are offered as sketches or line drawings, that are largely or entirely created by a computer app. My line drawings are suitable for various print process’, and can include colour if required. You can order Line Drawings as a digital file and/or a Giclée print, which can also be supplied framed if required. You can order this product on my online shop.Original Watercolour Paintings: Once again, working from your photographs I create an original watercolour painting on premium British made watercolour paper. I’m happy to exclude details and features as requested, or sometimes include details that aren’t present on the photographs! Original Watercolour Paintings can be supplied as paintings only, or painting plus digital file if required, in addition the painting can also be supplied framed. You can order this product on my online shop.Original Oil Paintings: I treat my Original Oil Pantings slightly differently than my Original Line Drawings & Original Watercolour Paintings. As you’d expect by now, I work from your photographs, however, as an Original Oil Painting is often substantially more expensive than the other work on this page, I typically treat them as I would a full commissioned piece of art. Please have a look at my Original & Commissioned Art section, and get in touch if you’re interested in discussing the various options available.

Frequently Asked Questions - Architectural Drawings & Paintings
It depends, of course, but in general Line Drawings start at £95.00, Watercolour Original Paintings at £225.00, and the Original Oil Paintings vary too much to give a useful average price. You can view the pricing for the first two on my online shop along with other details.
The Line Drawings are usually completed within 1 working week, precise timing just depends on my workload at the time. The Original Watercolour Paintings generally takes around 2 weeks, again work-load dependent. I always confirm my anticipated despatch at the time of order. Original Oil Paintings usually take longer, in addition to scheduling the subject and scale of the work can make a big difference to timing.
As standard I supply my artwork for non-commercial use, which allows for reasonable personal enjoyment and use, but excludes reproduction for profit or any commercial use. If you require artwork for commercial use I offer commercial licensing as required. Copyright to any artwork is automatically assigned to the artist, and remains with the artist unless stated expressly assigned in writing.
I usually work with mages from phone cameras, and as long as they’re in focus, well lit, and not too distorted from the wide angle of phone cameras lenses, there’s nothing special about the image. However, the content and perspective are critical, I can only create from what’s on the image so position yourself with perspective in mind when taking the image.
A Line Drawing is a digital file by default, though it can also be supplied as a Giclée fine art print, and in turn this can be framed if required. An Original Watercolour Painting is painted on watercolour paper, though it can be supplied also as a digital file, and similar to the Line Drawing it can also be supplied framed.
Yes, I have some standard sizes that I work to, but I’m happy to chat about bespoke sizes if required. The Line Drawing digital file is supplied as a print quality file at A4 size as standard.
I offer three printed products from Architectural Drawing or Painting; Stationery Sets: Boxed sets of notepaper and notecards, Greetings Cards: Premium quality print on heavyweight cardstock, Giclée Fine Art Prints: Printed using archival quality inks and papers. All of these products are designed, printed and made in my studio.
I offer preferential rates for framing along with plenty of style options, depending on your requirements and the artwork. I have a selection of standard framing themes that work well with Line Drawings & Original Watercolour Paintings, just get in touch if you’re interested in framing options. All my framing is made and finished in my studio.
