Andy is happy to discuss commissionsed work with individuals, charities, churches, heritage bodies, literary societies and companies. No job is too small or too large, can be from the sublime to the ridiculous and can be undertaken framed or unframed. If framing is required the work is carried out by Goldmark Framing in Uppingham to a very high standard.
Visits are welcome but please check availability and directions first (just a few miles from Astley Book Farm, the biggest secondhand bookseller in the Midlands).
