'Troya'
Ange: "Photos don't do any justice to how "life like" the portraits are. I am over the moon with my fabulous portrait of my home bred girl Troya. James is a very talented artist and was able to capture Troya's cheeky expression. As you can see Troya was also impressed with her portrait. Will be looking forward to seeing her son Biddles' portrait soon."

Joy: "I saw James’ work on Facebook and was eager to have a portrait of my 2yr old boy, Oscar, completed. I spoke with James and from the first moment of contact he was very helpful and professional as well as having a personal touch".

"The finished portrait is beyond amazing. He has captured Oscar’s character and handsome features and somehow transported them on to canvas. Plus Oscar’s beautiful eye’s are portrayed so well. The photo I have taken does not emphasise how great the portrait is in real view. I highly recommend James and would like to thank him once again, for the time spent, making the commission a pleasure from start to finish".    -  22nd June 2020
