I launched this commission option very quietly, to see whether it was realistic for me to paint all twelve paintings to order, and I’m happy to say that I now know it is! When I started this project I put commissions on hold, because I could see that I was developing my own visual language with the work and I really wanted to build that up slowly and quietly, and find out where it led me. I think I needed a chance to draw breath and really concentrate on the work. This is the first commission option that I developed, and there are now two more options - you can see the full set of commission options here.

If you’ve been following this project for a while you’ll know that I have a range of paintings called The Greatest Hits. These are paintings where the subject and colour combination just sing, and I paint them more than once. I have now developed a Greatest Hit painting for every strip of twelve colours on the beautiful 2020 Farrow and Ball colour card. I’ve fine-tuned this combination of paintings over several years and it works as a sequence, like a piece of music. This means that I can now paint a limited number of colour cards to order. There will be twelve paintings in total - one Greatest Hit painting on each of the eleven strips of colours, and a unique, surprise painting on the last strip of the chart. These paintings sell out really quickly when I have an Originals sale, so this is a rare chance to secure every single one, painted just for you and all onto one spectacular chart!

The paintings are as follows: The Seagull on New White, The Airmail Letter on Old White, The Lips on Oxford Stone, The Victoria Sponge on French Gray, The Tux on Paean Black, The Eye on Pink Ground, The Bubbles on Preference Red, The Small Bird on Card Room Green, The Tennis Ball on Yeabridge Green, The Park on Borrowed Light and The World on Railings. The surprise painting on the twelfth strip of colours is - a surprise! And it will be different each time. The piece is signed, dated and embossed and accompanied by a signed certificate of authenticity. It is sold unframed and measures 21cm x 91cm.

Please be aware that this piece is specifically designed for the 2020 Farrow and Ball colour card, which is where this project began - they are no longer in production in 2025 and I don’t have many left! So this commission opportunity will not be available indefinitely. I will paint the commissions in the order in which they arrive and they take time to paint. If you’d like to discuss commissioning this piece please get in touch. You will always reach me directly, and I’ll be able to give you a sense of how long it will take and answer any questions you might have. Thank you!

Please note: I am based in London, UK. I regularly sell my work internationally and I take care of the export formalities, but with this piece the recipient will be responsible for paying any import duties or related fees that may be applicable in their country. Please don’t hesitate to ask for more details.
