Description
I'm Nigel Spaven - born in 1962 and raised in sunny Seaton Carew, on the N.E. coast of England. Seaton is sandwiched between Hartlepool Marina and the Tees estuary and has a glorious, rambling golden beach. Behind Seaton is the ever-expanding Hartlepool. Tis lively and interesting - and worth a visit if you get the chance.

We also have a grand and colourful history - click here for an official guide to Hartlepool.

All surfaces should be sound and treated where necessary. I will then prime the surface with a
suitable primer. For indoor projects I use matt emulsions and acrylics which are non-toxic,
hardwearing and lightfast. If necessary, the completed work is coated with matt varnish
for added protection, easier cleaning and increased durability.
After we have discussed ideas, I will submit sketches for your approval before
commencing the work. The painting process can take anywhere from one day to three weeks, depending on size and complexity. For longer projects I can work at your convenience.
References from previous clients available upon request.

I require from you a good selection of clear photographs of your victim(s) and any other info you can provide that you'd like to include - hobbies, interests, achievements, in-jokes, etc.
Price depends on complexity of the work, so send your info/ideas for a quote.
If you have an idea in mind, that's fine! If not, leave it to me!
Fee includes preliminary sketches, amendments and final (unframed) artwork,
which is produced using light fast inks on high quality A4 or A3 photo paper.
