Aspin Family Magazine Collage Commission

Aspin Family Collage

A2 magazine collage commission depicting the recipient with his three sons and the family dog. A favourite family walk along the Norfolk coast.

The light in this was really lovely and I wanted to make sure I captured it.

I loved the little dog and was really pleased with how he turned out, lots of tiny pieces but it was worth the effort.

The sun catches the hair beautifully, again lots of tiny pieces were needed to recreate it.

Happy Customers!

Lovely feedback on this -

Just unwrapped! My husband is totally blown away by the collage you did of him and our 3 boys on a walk in one of our favourite places on the north Norfolk coast. It's for a 'significant' birthday - we are both totally in awe of the exquisite detail and the way you've captured a moment so perfectly in a beautiful piece of art to enjoy forever. You are so clever!

St Michael's Mount A3 Magazine Collage

St Michael's Mount was a really lovely commission to receive. 

There was so much detail to capture, it really put my collaging skills to the test! Achieving the effect of brickwork and the windows were the main challenge.

I highlighted interesting details such at the white gates, doors and windows.

Father Time Magazine Collage

'Time rules the world', magazine collage depicting Father Time watching the tide rise and the sunset on parliament. The stars become dandelion clocks as they fall, they read 'Tick Tock'. Made entirely of ripped and cut magazines, on recycled board using non-toxic adhesives.

This piece was collaged on the back board of a preloved frame, reinserted once complete. I have a matching frame which I hope to use for a related piece. I hope this will be the first of many in my 'Personification' series.

The collage had such a positive reaction on line that it is now available as an A4 print and A6 art card.

Hubble Bubble A3 Magazine Collage

Hubble Bubble is the latest in my 'Let's Pretend' series for my solo exhibition September 2017.

The collage was based on a photograph my daughter posed for in our back garden.

Vanter Family A2 Magazine Collage Commission

This piece was created using several family photographs to place the family on the coastal path they wished to be depicted on. I love to collage sea, sky and rural scenes so this was a fun one for me to work on.

There were lots of details to get correct and changes had to be made to clothing to suit the location. I also used my artistic licence to widen the path enough for them to walk in pairs.

Szabo Family Magazine Collage Commission

I love how sunny this magazine collage feels, mainly due to the light colours used and bright yellow of the field on the left.

A2 Magazine Collage Commission

It was based mainly on one photograph supplied by the client, with some additional requests to make more of the buggy visable, To remove the jumper tid aound the waist and to remove the oncoming cyclists.

There was a lot of detail in this piece which was fun to highlight.

The client opted to organise framing this piece themselves.

Magazine Collage Commission - Audi R8

A slightly different one for me, taking me out of my comfort zone! I was requested to create an Audi R8 in Cadbury's purple for a 50th birthday gift. This was commissioned by the talented Bad Dog Designs who I met through a networking hour on Twitter. It was wonderful to meet them both when they came to collect.

Karen & I with the piece commissioned by Paul

Luckily the client was able to provide an image of her driving one albeit in a different colour.

Completed magazine collage. As this was a full face shot and a depiction as appose to a portrait, we agreed to add sunglasses to Karen.

The lights and grill provide a great opportunity to add some detail to the piece.
