I would like to welcome you and hope that you will be satisfied with the services and quality of work that I provide. I specialize in painting and sketching exquisite pet portraits in pastel, oils or graphite/pencil from photographs, which can be emailed from anywhere in the world. Horse portraits, portraits of people, landscapes, wildlife and buildings can also be commissioned. A sample of these can be found within the various galleries.

A great deal of time trying to capture the personality and character of every subject that I paint and a suitable background will be added to enhance the pet portraits/people portraits that I am working on. 

No Prepayment is required until you are totally happy with a photograph of the finished artwork, which will be emailed to you.     

Framing : I use a very good, fully Guilded Framer whose prices are very reasonable. Should you require this service, please contact me. Naturally, there would be a post and packaging fee due to the extra weight.

Customer Comments :

"My partner gave me the best Christmas present ever. he gave me a painting of my very precious dogs, Basil and Kelso, that he had commissioned you to complete. I wanted you to know that I think that the quality of your work is excellent. The detail and likeness to my dogs is amazing. The painting has taken pride in my living room and has been the talking point throughout the Christmas period. Thank you, Carol" 

Dear Mr. Ashby, just to let you know that the drawing of Jake was absolutely beautiful. You have caught his expression brilliantly. I am so thrilled with it. I knew that it would be good, having seen your work before, but I didn't realize how good it would be.                             Best Regards, Margery

Dear Colin, it looks fantastic and we are both really pleased with it. The picture framer was also very impressed and asked for your details for future reference.
Again many thanks and we are most impressed with the quality of the artwork and the level of service that you provide.
Regards, Stephen
