Production Times

Unframed and Original Paintings that are already framed are typically shipped out within 7 working days (sometimes I will have to order a specialist box appropriate for the painting size).

...But not all of my original paintings come pre-framed. For unframed originals, I'm happy to offer custom framing — simply choose your preferred frame colour and I'll have a bespoke frame made specifically for your painting.

Please note that custom framing does take a little longer, as the frame needs to be ordered, delivered and then carefully fitted by hand. Please allow an additional 7–14 days for custom framed orders.

If you'd like to discuss custom framing for a piece you're interested in, please get in touch and I'll be happy to help.

'Bramble Bush Bay Shores' Original Oil Painting - Dorset Coastal Art - There are places that stay with you long after you've left them - their light, their rhythm, their peace. Bramble Bush Bay in Dorset is one of those places for me, and 'Bramble Bush Bay Shores' captures that quiet magic in a way that only an original painting can.

This is a one-of-a-kind piece, hand-painted in oils on canvas board. Every brushstroke and colour blend you see here is completely unique - this exact painting can never be recreated. This isn't a reproduction - this is the actual painting that came from my hands, my heart, and those peaceful mornings standing at the water's edge. This painting is 40.5 x 50.5 cm (15.9 x 19.7 in) in size and measures 44 x 54 cm (17.3 x 21.2 in) in the white wooden frame.

I painted this after spending time by that quiet stretch of Dorset coast where the world seems to slow down and the soft rhythm of the sea takes over everything. What I wanted to capture wasn't a literal depiction, but the feeling - that peaceful exhale when you're standing alone at the water's edge on a still summer morning, when everything feels perfectly calm and the air is so light you can almost taste the salt.

The colours came together intuitively as I worked. Sandy creams melt seamlessly into duck egg blue, while white light touches teal on the distant horizon. These soft, blended layers mimic the hazy beauty of sea air and light on water, creating that atmospheric depth that can only be achieved with oils. The painting holds a sense of stillness - movement is there in the brushwork, but it's the kind that soothes rather than stirs, like the gentle pull of the tide and the hush of waves lapping the shore.

What makes an original painting so special is the texture, the depth, the way light plays across the actual paint surface. You can see the individual brushstrokes and pallette knife strokes, feel the layers beneath, notice how the colours shift as you move around the piece. It's a living thing in a way that prints simply cannot replicate. This painting breathes. It glows. It holds energy and emotion in its very substance.

The piece is beautifully presented in a white wood float frame that adds a clean, contemporary elegance while allowing the painting to appear suspended within the frame. The white complements the soft coastal palette perfectly, enhancing the sense of light and space. It arrives completely ready to hang - no need for additional framing or preparation. Simply unbox and enjoy.

This original would transform a bedroom into a sanctuary, bringing that sense of coastal calm to your mornings and evenings. In a living room it creates a sophisticated focal point that invites contemplation and peace. In a hallway or entrance it offers a welcoming breath of sea air the moment you walk through the door. Wherever it lives, it will bring that soothing spaciousness and quiet beauty.

As an original artwork, this is also an investment piece. Unlike prints which can be reproduced indefinitely, this painting is entirely unique - when it's gone, it's gone. Original artwork holds its value and often appreciates over time, making it both a beautiful addition to your home and a wise collector's choice.

If you're drawn to the coast, if you crave calm in your space, if you want something truly special and utterly unique - this piece is waiting for you. Your own piece of Dorset peace, captured in oil and ready to transform your home.

The painting is 40.5 x 50.5 cm (15.9 x 19.7 in) in size and measures 44 x 54 cm (17.3 x 21.2 in) in the white wooden frame.
