I cannot thank Robert enough for his beautiful painting of our son. It’s the first thing people comment on when they come to our house, they can’t believe the likeness. It feels so special to have something so personal and meaningful - he’s captured a moment in time so perfectly. Robert was so professional and personable in all our communication - there was no question too silly! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We recently commisioned Robert to paint a portrait of our son. The whole experience was a dream, Robert's structured process was very welcome, and allowed us to really consider the kind of impression we wanted him to capture, it gave us total liberty with a guiding hand. An initial brief was followed by sketches which led onto the final piece, which is eye-wateringly beautiful. Robert has masterfully encapsulated the subject, surrounding and overall feeling, and produced a painting that we'll treasure forever, and ever and ever... and ever! Thanks again, you absolutely nailed it! x

I can't recommend Robert enough for anyone interested in having a portrait commissioned. Robert made what can be quite an odd process of capturing a snapshot of a person's life incredibly smooth and created a painting that reflects all of the emotions of the moment perfectly. I couldn't be happier with the end result!

I commissioned Robert to create a painting for my sister of her beloved dogs.
It was so much fun - he involved me at every stage, making it feel like a collaboration.
I ended up with a gorgeous painting and it had the desired effect, my sister cried with joy (and her dogs barked with alarm at their lifelike oil doppelgängers!)
I can’t recommend him enough!

Robert unveiled his portrait of my wife and I at our wedding. We hadn’t really considered how well an oil portrait would accompany such an occasion but it was an elegant addition to the event. It will take pride of place in our home
