‘Memory’ Pieces & ‘Special Places’ Landscapes:

Over the years, I have experienced moments of epiphany that have altered the course of my life. The triggers are usually quite mundane: it could be hearing a piece of music, a chance encounter with a stranger or a beam of light shining on an object, but they are always accompanied by a sort of ‘light-bulb’ moment and the feeling that this revelation is some sort of momentous rite of passage.
I relish the challenge of finding ways to illustrate these special moments for other people. They are the moments where all your senses are on high alert: sights, sounds, touch and smell, working in harmony to make your heart sing. They are often so evocative and poignant that they leave you feeling utterly joyful. Sometimes you may want to record these moments and know that a photograph is simply not enough to evoke the memory of the magic. Until now, you may not have known quite how to go about doing this.
I look forward to being invited to share with you your own recollections of your unique special moment in time, or create new pilgrimages to places that have special meanings for you. And if you decide to commission me, extremely privileged to record it for posterity in the form of a creative artwork, either as a lasting gift for yourself or your nearest and dearest.
If you would like to make further enquiries, or just to chat, please feel free to fill in the form below. I would be very happy to discuss the process and answer any of your concerns or questions about commissioning your own, unique ‘Special Places’ art work.
Below are some examples of my work (taken from posts on this blog) to get your creative juices flowing and give you an idea of some of the things that could be considered for such a commission. It might include a guided chakra walk to a special place as part of the experience (see my ‘chakra walk to the Mount’ in Recent Projects). Or it might simply be a painting or a monotype of a favourite landscape / view / memory of a first visit / etc. Or it could be the visual story of your own pilgrimage.

The Commission Process
As an artist, I welcome client led projects and relish the opportunity of working with individuals to realise their creative dreams. Let me know what you are thinking about and if it’s possible, we can arrange to meet to discuss the project in more detail.
By their very nature, the ‘sacred landscape’ and ‘special memory’ works are more complex and usually involve a mixture of different media. They might – as a starting point – comprise a collection of drawings, recording moments of a meeting at a ‘sacred’ place, for example, the walk to it and thoughts that may arise from spending time in the chosen space. It might be the recording of a special gathering or a commemoration of a special occasion or anniversary.
The finished piece might simply be a one-off drawing of a favoured pet. Or it could be as diverse as a painting of a sacred landscape, a digital record of a commemorative flight in a hot air balloon, or it might involve a grid that sums up your thoughts and feelings. It might be accompanied by a small book of accumulated material. The publication could be reproduced as gifts for friends and family to commemorate the occasion.
Prices are negotiable for large, mixed media ‘memory’ or ‘sacred landscape’ works, (including digital media) and is dependent on the complexity of the subject. As you can appreciate, these kind of works take time and consideration and culminate in a unique piece of original artwork. Please allow at least 4 – 6 months for these special works (if you are thinking about a birthday present, for example).
Once a format has been established and an initial contract signed, a 30% deposit of the full price is requested to carry out preliminary studies. Travel expenses might also have to be considered if the artist needs to travel beyond a 10 mile radius of her home. (Currently 45p per mile, HMRC Gov.UK)
Of course, the whole process starts with an idea of what you would like to commission. Please don’t hesitate to contact me to discuss your requirements, by filling in the form below with any initial queries you may have. Or call me on 01822 811026. That first communication is all part of the important process that evolves up to a final outcome. It is a fluid, uniquely creative collaboration in its own right.
Terms and Conditions: You, as the client, have first refusal on any original art work carried out on your behalf. However, the artist retains copyright over all art work produced and has the right to reproduce images in other publications, etc., or her own publicity material.
