About Alan

Alan started his artistic life as an award-winning photographer. He has been actively involved in art and design for the past 40 years. Recently, he started turning his art into a career by taking commissions to illustrate people’s homes.

“I’ll capture the essence of your home—transforming it into a piece of art that speaks to your heart, and reminds you of the beautiful life you’ve built within those walls.”

Let Alan help you celebrate your home in a personal and heartfelt way. Every house has its own story! Contact him now to create your own personal memory.

Alan is based in Wellington, New Zealand, but has painted houses as far afield as Wales, France, Italy, the US and Auckland. If you have a good photo of the home you want painted, then he can paint it. Get in touch now.

If you’re interested in having your home painted, I would love to hear from you. The best way to get in touch with me is by email.

You can also follow me on Facebook and then contact me via Messenger.

Or you can connect with me on LinkedIn or on Instagram.

If you’d like to commission a painting from me, please send me the address of the house, and if you can, send me a photo. I’ll use the address to look on Google StreetView.

If you don’t have a good photo, we can either use the image from Google StreetView, or look on real estate agent websites to find a good image of the house.
