Washingborough Hall commission

The pavilion in the morning sunshine

Straight into drawing out the Pavilion in permanent pen, so no room for any mistakes!

I posted a painting of a French chateau I painted during a holiday recently and it was seen on Facebook by an owner of Washingborough Hall in Lincolnshire, UK. She asked me if I took commissions and last week I drove 200 miles north, and during a beautifully warm September day, I produced this set of paintings for her. Watercolour and permanent pen on Winsor & Newton 300gsm Grain Fin paper.

    I absolutely love this! It is a dream to have a painting like this up on my wall. My husband proposed to me at this very location.

    How could I possibly get a copy of this painting, as I believe it is a one off piece?
