About My Art

About My Art

 
 

In 2006 a hobby turned into an adventure, with many amazing encounters and memories…

I painted portraits of famous actors and musicians. Then I endeavoured to meet them to ask them to personally autograph my portrait of them.

The full story of how this began and how I created the paintings is in About My Art’ (click the photo of me painting).

All the paintings in the first gallery below have been personally autographed by the person in the portrait.

Click on a portrait to see a video and photos of that person signing the portrait and the story of how I met them.

(At the bottom are also videos and photos of my art on TV and in exhibitions)
