Tromp L’Oeil Corkscrews

This is the inspired result from wildlife artist Andrew Hutchinson having been commissioned to paint panelled doors for "The Feathered Nest", in Nether Westcote.

The country pub took a unique approach in giving their establishment a hint of antique authenticity, Andrew painted tromp l'oeil corkscrews onto the doors, as if they were hanging on nails. It was an unusual commission that Andrew greatly enjoyed and one that enabled him to use a collection of antique corkscrews he had in his possession!

Frances Castle – HMS Belfast

Frances Castle was commissioned by design agency NB: Studio to produce artwork for a year long ad campaign for HMS Belfast to be used on Underground posters, leaflets, on-site display adverts, e-flyers and print adverts.
The concept of the project was to reveal the many levels of fun to be had onboard HMS Belfast and to highlight some of the more quirky facts about life below deck. The poster had to appeal to children and families and incorporate actual photographs from the site, as well as the ship itself.
