Antique tin boats restoration

These tiny antique boats (and even smaller sailors) needed a little TLC and paintwork.

Antique tin boats restoration

The client didn't want the wire replaced or fixed on the sailing ships but he wanted a bit of a paint job done on these chaps and their boats. This job was really fun as luckily there was some of the original paint left on each boat so it made the colour matching process that bit easier and I feel more confident that this is something near what they would have looked like when they were played with over 100 years ago. What lovely boats!

Pet portraits make great gifts

For pet portraits, I predominantly use oil paints or Caran D’ache pastel pencils on pastelmat paper. The resulting texture is very smooth and velvety, which I think is perfect for drawing animals. Once completed, each drawing is sealed with a finish to protect the artwork over time to give a long lasting characterful drawing of our favourite four-legged friends.

Hire me for your event

Weddings, funerals & special events

I have been playing at weddings and events for nearly 10 years and it never ceases to amaze me how humbling it can be to be a part of such a special and meaningful day. Whatever the event, if you are stuck in choosing music, I am always happy to help with any suggestions. My motto is, ‘if it has a tune, my harp and I will play it for you. I can also recommend examples of popular music choices that I have played for similar events over the years, but I am more than happy to learn any song you like - literally, anything goes! If you would like to mix things up, I can also play guitar for you (or piano, if there is one at the venue).
