Commission me to work for you...
​
... to make art.
I can produce artwork to your specifications; painted, printed, drawn, or digitally (on Procreate), or happily, other genres of artistic creation;
​
or... for graphic medicine and therapeutic support.
I can work with you in relation to attitudes concerning aspects of sexual relationships, sexual activity, healing, identity and fantasies; specialising in long-term health conditions and disability. We can explore creatively, talking and using arts, or the environment;
​
or... to facilitate workshops.
I can organise and run a safe and effective workshop according to criteria.
​
My pay scale is sliding depending on the context (between voluntary and £250 a day, plus preparation time and materials.
There are a lot of hours that go into creating).
​
Let me know (via the Get In Touch buttons) your hopes for our work together. What sort of art style and medium you would like, audience and usage (if you know), your budget, time-line, locations, and any obstacles to consider? Attach links of examples if you can.
I can call you back if you leave a phone number, for a short, free discussion.

It is a bit vague I know, to ask just - what sort of art would you like? I can produce the types of art I have listed in the bullet points, but to see examples of my style and capabilities, have a look through my galleries. I can copy styles and respond to your needs. I'm not good at photoshop, but I can draw, paint and print. I'd love to ruminate your project needs. Thank you for considering me.
Graphic Medicine is a field that supports the interaction between the medium of comics, art and the discourse of healthcare, for individuals and communities of academics, health-carers, authors, artists, and fans of comics. It involves exploring perspectives on health & wellbeing via sequential drawings.
​
Psycho-sexual work that I feel confident to deliver is primarily artistic and visual in the form of therapeutic arts amanuensism. That means I can draw for you. You might want to see yourself in erotic depictions or fantasies, or want to make art yourself about struggles, challenges or trauma, or have successes you'd like to honour or enjoy, but you need a facilitator. You might just want a respectful witness to trust and talk with. Inevitably there is a lot of personal sharing conversation between us when creating drawings together.
​
It is important that we both feel safe and employ strong boundaries, supervision and establish a contract for this work.
See my Graphic Medicine page on this website and determine if my amanuensis work is what you want before getting in touch please. The example illustrated here is of a wheelchair user who wanted to be a 'Knight in Shining Armour'. It was done digitally from a photo and took me about 2 hours plus some time in discussion. I charge an hourly rate between £15-£45 an hour by arrangement.
This is sensitive work. Thank you for your respect. I care and welcome sincere enquiries. I can offer referrals.
Your message is private to only me. I can call you back if you leave a phone number for a short, free discussion.
Bespoke Workshops. Usually there is a need or objective for a workshop. It begins with the participants and what we are hoping they will achieve and feel after the workshop. I can co-create workshops around these themes...
-
Community
-
Environmental
-
Health & Wellbeing
-
Arts activities - Educational
-
Arts activities - Recreational
-
Tarot themed
Or, it might be a workshop component of a funded project you have with clear criteria, or part of a curriculum. It might be a one off, indoors or outdoors, for a particular group of people, themed or broad, inter-generational, or for an age-group with specific requirements, for fun, healing, or event based. You might want ideas, logistics and resources that need collating.
It will need to be inclusive and safe, so timing, access, place and parameters are important considerations. What resources, human and material are available? This is the sort of information I need to embark on a discussion. Please let me know as much as you can.​
Ideally I’d like to be paid well and cover costs, but can work to your budget.
