I create original artwork, portraits and tattoo designs. I am a self taught artist of many years and absolutely passionate about my job . I mainly specialise in portraits of animals, i adore drawing your "fur babies" your beloved pets and people, those family members

Capturing personality and beauty is so important to me and very rewarding. I love getting my customers reactions, it gives me such enjoyment, especially when it means so much to someone!

I specialise in coloured pencils or graphite pencil, as this seems to be my favourite medium to use.

The Magic Of a Commission Bundle-More Than Just a Portrait

7 Jan 2026 16:53

There's something truly special about capturing a beloved pet in a portrait-those soulful eyes, the tilt of a head, the personality that shines through every pencil stroke. But what if you could take that experience even further? That's exactly what i set out to do with my commission bundles.

When you commission a portrait, you're not just receiving a single piece of art. I believe in creating a whole experience, a keepsake that feels as thoughtful and personal as the subject itself. That's why each commission bundle includes not only the original artwork, but also a selection of high-quality prints and a beautifully presented package, complete with a wax-sealed envelope and a handwritten note. You can see how each element comes together; the original portrait, a set of prints in various sizes ( perfect for sharing with family or displaying in different rooms) and a special envelope for that extra touch of luxury.

Whether you're gifting a portrait to a loved one or treating yourself, my commission bundles are designed to turn a moment into a memory, If you'd like to know more about how to order, or if you have a special request, just get in touch- i'd love to help you create something truly unforgettable.

Introducing my latest piece.......

Wedding Commissions

These wedding commissions were created to honour a truly special day, and it means so much to be able to turn a moment like this into something lasting.. A custom piece can hold not only the likeness of a special couple, but the feeling of the day itself-the love, the joy and the memories that will be treasured for the years to come.

There is something deeply meaningful about creating artwork that becomes part of a family's story. It is always a privilege to make a piece that feels personal, sentimental and full of heart.

"Midnight Watch"

There is something so captivating about the silent flight of a Barn Owl. I wanted to capture that moment of focus and grace against the darkness. Wings spread, eyes locked.

A3 canvas in Acrylics

"Ruby"

The gorgeous Ruby

There's something about the soulful gaze of a dog that speaks straight to the heart. This portrait was inspired by those quiet moments when your furry friend looks up at you with pure trust and curiosity- reminding us of the simple joys and deep bonds we share with our pets,

If you're considering ordering a portrait commission;

I post regular updates and news on my Facebook page ( MW Arts ). I welcome your feedback, reviews and enquiries.

My lead time is at least a couple of months so please get in touch, especially if you have in mind a deadline.

A deposit of £20 secures your commission slot, then the remaining balance is payable upon completion.

Suitable, clear photographs are needed, so that i can add as much detail as possible in the finished result. I can also amalgamate several photos into one drawing commission piece.

Before i'm due to start your special commission i will be in touch to confirm your wishes ( layout etc ). once i have started, i will send regular updates of my progress.

When i have completed your special piece, i always leave it for a couple of days just in case i notice any minor changes that i have missed.

Then it will be packaged very securely and sent by Royal Mail Special delivery in the UK. For overseas, by Royal Mail Airmail.

Customer Reviews:

" Thank you so much! These are incredible! "

" Precious drawing of my three! Thank you! Such a perfect gift! "

"It is very evident in this donkey that the artist not only loves animals with a passion but the intricate and delicate technique she produced here demonstrates incomparable talent. To own her artwork is indeed a privilege"

"I went out with some friends last night and showed them a photo of Freddie that you drew for me at Christmas. They were all astonished at your talent and loved it. I have now got him framed in a nice wooden frame and he has pride of place on our wall"

" I just wanted to say a massive thank you again for my absolutely stunning picture. I'm in awe of your skills and talent. I couldn't imagine in my wildest dreams that it would be something so special and beautiful"

" The picture is truly beautiful. I look at it long and hard, and feel i can lose myself in it. You have captured it perfectly and i feel it is mine, a place to hide"

" Mandy first done a portrait of our German Shepard cross Husky, Loki, to say it was amazing was an understatement. So we commissioned her to do our other dogs, firstly there was Thor, a French bulldog. Mandy managed to capture his true character in this drawing, it was brilliant. Next was our Dachshunds, Mabel and Stanley, Mabel is a blue dapple and Stanley is a Isabella, Mandy captured their colouring perfectly. And, all 3 dogs drawings are very realistic. I cannot recommend Mandy ( MW Arts ) enough"

" A truly wonderful transition from photograph to drawing. They are so life- like it is amazing! I now have my pets ,Bobby, Nemo and Bonzo with me always. I am in 'awe' and very grateful"

" I really love these artworks. A lot of details in the drawing brings the picture to life. I also love all the colours in these drawings, which, makes the drawing stand out and brings nature and warmth into the room. I can't thank you enough!"

"Amazing! The glow in the dark piece is absolutely brilliant!" AH

"Not what i expected! Its better! so pleased, thank you so much!" MA
