Azure Kingfisher pastel artwork

Azure Kingfisher

My husband and I adore our portrait of the Azure Kingfisher, a beautiful edition to our Rainbow Bee-eater pastel portrait. Deb’s skill with pastel is nothing short of amazing, producing photo realistic pieces that truly capture the soul of the animal. We appreciate the effort Deb applies to create an artwork, knowing the time Deb spends in the field observing and photgraphing the animal before producing a piece, from start to finish the effort that goes into each artwork is next level.

A stunning piece with soul, a story and the knowledge that proceeds from this commission go to wildlife conservation - we will always consider Deb and treasure her art.

I love creating private commissions, I find them quite intimate and rewarding. Commissions are great as a “one off” unique gift for someone you love, they also make beautiful memorials. They can be the gift or memory that last’s a lifetime.

If you are interested in a commissioned drawing or painting please don’t hesitate to contact me for a quote.

Many of my commissions are of loved family pets, why not celebrate the love and joy they bring to your family with a beautiful portrait.

These commissions are created using charcoal or pastels on quality paper.

I will require a good quality reference photo/s supplied by you, in order to capture the features and spirit of the commission subject.

Finished drawings or paintings will be supplied signed with a mount ready for framing.

Deb’s amazing portrait sits proudly in our loungeroom and will be a constant reminder of our beautiful boy Sonny who sadly is no longer with us.

Thank you for your wonderful work, you have given us an amazing memory we will keep forever.

Just got home from our evening walk and received our special portrait in the mail, words can’t express what this means to us. We cried when we saw Jethro’s portrait. You are so amazing Deb Farrimond, we love your work.

We now own three of Deb’s artworks, Allan loves Fangio and he takes pride of place alongside Boris.

Thank you for the most amazing portrait of Molly. I have her back from the framers and she is hanging in pride of place in our dining room. I think a lot of people tend to get portraits done after they lose their pet, in this case, it is lovely to be able to look at Molly’s portrait whilst still adoring and cuddling Molly.

Many thanks and kind regards Chris (and Molly) from the UK.  

We love your work Deb, it’s striking. Thanks for visiting us to unveil it and celebrate its pride of place in our new home.
