My favourite part of Bristol – when I see the colourful terraces of Totterdown I know I am nearly home.  The green spire of Holy Nativity Church is a landmark seen from all around Bristol.  Park Street, in the middle of this panorama, is a challenge to walk up, but one that pales into insignificance in comparison to Vale Street (hiding just to the left behind Upper Street), the steepest residential street in the UK.  Add a fabulous Art Trail every year, and who couldn’t love Totterdown.

My prints are a modern take on the city view. They have proved very popular as birthday and wedding gifts, are often bought for colleagues, and for those poor souls who are leaving Bristol. Of course the best gift is the one you buy for yourself, so if you would like one of my prints on your wall, please select the size you would like, then click on the button to be taken to PayPal.

Prints will be delivered in a sturdy cardboard tube. UK postage is free, for elsewhere in the World, please contact me before ordering.

Each of my cityscapes starts with me taking numerous photos of my chosen view. I then head to my studio to get drawing, first in pencil, then pen. After scanning my drawing, I spend a ridiculous amount of time digitally adding the colour, before the resulting high resolution image is finally printed on a large format printer as an archival quality Giclée Print. This panorama come in two sizes, 100 x 30cm (edition of 100), and 70 x 21cm (edition of 125). Each is numbered, signed, and embossed in the corner with my stamp.
