Artistic Services

Stephen offers a range of services designed to bring unique, hand-painted art into your life, from personal commissions to gallery-ready pieces. 

Personal Commissions

Considering investing in a statement piece for the living room, or wish to have a cherished memory from an old photograph immortalized on canvas? Stephen will work closely with you to understand your desires, transforming your ideas into a unique, captivating painting.

Existing Works & Collections

Browse Stephen's extensive portfolio of original paintings, dating back to April 2013, when his artistic journey began. He has previously always been very attached to his original works, retaining the vast majority of his non-commissioned paintings. However, if you are drawn to a particular piece then it may be available to purchase.

Exhibition Opportunities

Stephen has never really sought the limelight and has rarely taken part in exhibitions over the years. However, he is now open to exploring opportunities and showcasing his work in galleries & exhibitions across Liverpool and beyond. If you represent a venue or curate art events, he would be delighted to discuss collaboration.

"I will put a quote from one of my many satisfied customers here, once I get round to it."

How long does a painting take?

Well, every painting project is different but as a general guide...

A detailed portrait of one person painted over a basic background, in black & white acrylics on a 16x12" stretched canvas, can take anywhere between 10-16 hours spread over 2-3 weeks

How much do your paintings cost?

Again, every painting project is different - some smaller sized canvases may actually cost more than larger ones if they feature lots of characters and intense detail. The time it takes to complete plays an important part in the final fee, which will be quoted (and adhered to) before a brush hits the canvas
