Commissions

If you are interested in commissioning a painting please contact Isabelle below:

“The object of art is not to reproduce reality, but to create a reality of the same intensity” - Alberto Giacometti.

When painting a portrait from life Isabelle aims to bring her subjects life with an intensity that matches reality. A spirit of collaboration between sitter and artist forms the heart of her process when capturing a likeness. Through observation and conversation during sittings certain subtleties of expression and character are revealed that inform the creation of a portrait. A painted portrait becomes the amalgamation of multiple moments lending it a depth and longevity unrivalled by a photograph.

Alongside painting portraits from life Isabelle is available for a variety of commissions including landscapes, still life, figurative work or something more bespoke according to the client’s personal vision. She is well-equipped when it comes to understanding a brief, collaborating with a client and communicating clearly in order to produce quality work.
