COMMISSIONING
Over the years I have created collections for public and private clients all over the world. I have been lucky enough to design installations, window displays, collections for hotels and restaurants and images for publishing. I've also created more personal displays for private clients to mark a special occasion or as a reminder of an important place or event.
Commissions are a big part of what I do. I love listening to the stories behind your ideas and turning them into displays that are completely unique and personal to you. I am happy to discuss commissions of any size, from a single favourite species to a frame filled with different kinds of flora and fauna.
Prices start at around £350 for a 26 x 28cm frame and increase depending on the size and complexity of the sculptures and display.
I usually ask a few questions to begin with to get an idea of the display you are looking for, including any particular species or themes you have in mind. I then go away and do some research and draw out some ideas for you to choose from. This is a really exciting part of the process as together we start to bring your ideas to life and create a display that really reflects your connection to the natural world. Once you are happy with the overall design the making can begin. I start by sourcing the materials needed, then draw out templates and mock ups before moving onto building the final sculptures. Once the sculptures have been made I send photos to make sure you are happy with them before I mount them in their custom, hand built frame.
A commission can take anything from 4 weeks to several months depending on the size and details put in. If you have a date you would like the piece to arrive by, this can be taken into account during the design process to make sure it arrives on time. Some times of the year are busier than others so its always best to get in contact in advance to make sure I have plenty of time to get the details right.

"They look amazing and we’re more than pleased. You really did a fantastic job and captured the subjects beautifully, which is no mean feat considering you’ve never seen most of the subjects in real life"
"Kate produced a unique one off item for my wife's 40th. It is quite simply stunning! Throughout Kate was very thorough and approachable...I cannot recommend her and her work enough"
"They are absolutely stunningly beautiful. Love their size, their layout, their colouring everything about them. They’re now laid on a large table in my bedroom. I smile at them every day."
