I work mainly in Artisan water mixable oils (which are like conventional oils but quicker drying), but also Pastel and Pencil, and for some subjects Watercolour (please click on the image you like on the gallery pages to see details of the type of medium used).
I specialize in realistic detailed portraits of horses, domestic pets and people and accept commissions world-wide. I work from your photographs, but can come and take some myself if you are within a reasonable distance to where I live.
I also paint landscapes, seascapes, buildings - in fact any subject would be considered.

Testimonials:-
"My sister and I purchased a portrait of our family dog,Jess, for my Dad as she had recently passed away and we wanted something to remember her by. We provided two photographs, one for the desired pose and one for the colouring. When we received the finished painting we were both amazed with how well the artist had captured her likeness and needless to say my Dad was over the moon with the gift." - Adam Meads, Burniston, Scarborough.
"I recommend Linda's work to anybody, we were so pleased with the portrait of "Jilly" , we couldn't believe how perfect the colours were, she really took time to make sure it was all just so. Absolutely Marvellous!"- Mr & Mrs Pickering, 11 Spreight Lane Flats, Scarborough.
