Architectural Portraits

Portraits of buildings, from private houses to modern office developments, can be commissioned at all sizes from small watercolours to very large oil paintings. They can reflect pride in a new development or affection for an old building.

The colours and design are inspirational but the whole process is governed by a respect for the craft of painting. The finished paintings evoke the very specific atmosphere of each place, in the nature of a true portrait.

John Walsom wants his pictures to have a positive impact. "I've always tried to paint pictures that people will want to look at, for a long time, without getting bored. People are proud of their buildings. They love the way they look at certain times of day, in a certain season, and a reminder of that moment makes them happy.   It's all about capturing a moment in the life of a place."
