| I have been asked
to perform several commissions over the past few years. Examples
linked to above pick out and detail a commercial commission for the Cut
Club in Knaresborough, a commission as part of my second year at the
College of York St John for St Denys' church in York and two commissions
for Castle School in Knaresborough to enhance the learning environment for
the school pupils.
I enjoy the challenge which is thrown at
me when asked to undertake a commission. I quite like the fact that
the commissions I have undertaken to date have all involved different artistic
disciplines and each has been a valuable learning experience, enabling me
better to approach my next work.
My first commission was at St Denys
Church in York and was undertaken as part of my degree course with two
other students. The confidence and skills I gained from this were
invaluable when I was asked by Castle School in Knaresborough to undertake
a Christmas themed mural to open up a small, unused room to be a valuable
resource for the teachers and children alike. Shortly after this, I
was asked again by the school to take on the transformation of a larger
open area in the school to provide through the use of a mural based on the
book "The Secret Garden", a space for the children to use as a
quiet area and reading corner/games area.
I have recently finished my first
commercial commission as part of the rebranding of Watkins-Wright hair
stylists in Knaresborough (formerly known as the Cut Club). This
involved completing eight 8 foot by 3 foot workstations from initial
conception through to the finished article in this busy and popular salon.

commissions can be found by following the relevant links above. |
