Oil portrait of a horse, gifted as a wedding present

Perfect Wedding Gifts

A hand-painted oil portrait makes a heartfelt and lasting wedding gift, something beautifully personal that will be treasured forever.

This portrait of Assy was commissioned as a surprise gift by James for Emma on their wedding day. The painting captured Emma’s beloved horse, and James presented it to her during the speeches on their big day. An unforgettable moment! If you are planning something similar, do get in touch well in advance. Oil paintings take time to arrange and complete, so the earlier I start, the better I can plan around the special date.

Happy Customer Reviews

I absolutely love receiving photos like this—Gill’s daughter Catherine, the beautiful Tilly, and the oil portrait all together. It’s moments like these that remind me why I do what I do.

My clients often tell me how much they enjoy the entire journey of commissioning a horse portrait. They value the personal interaction, from the very first enquiry to the moment they see the final piece. And for me, there’s nothing better than receiving emails and photos when the portrait arrives. Your stories, your kind words, and seeing the joy on my clients’ faces make everything I do so rewarding.
