A photo and a rough wall size are plenty. I'll reply with an indicative cost and a simple visual on your wall.

For over 25 years, I have illustrated stories for Penguin, Macmillan, Walker Books, and the BBC. Today, I bring that narrative expertise into healthcare.
I don't just paint walls; I create "positive distraction"—highly detailed worlds designed to reduce patient anxiety and provide comfort in clinical settings. Whether through bespoke hand-painted murals, wall vinyls or ceiling-mounted LED panels, my work helps you transform sterile spaces into environments that heal.
My Services
Vinyl Murals
High-resolution wall graphics for fast, flexible upgrades and phased refurbishments They offer endless possibilities for scale. Everything from modest accent pieces to large-format wall wraps.
Painted murals
Hand-painted murals for wards, corridors and waiting areas — calm, engaging, and made to last.
LED Murals
Ceiling artwork for rooms where patients lie down (treatment, dental, imaging prep) - They offer a gentle focus point and have dimming capabilities.
“The surgeries have come to life with the artwork. The children love them, a great distraction from why they are there. Every piece has so much thought and imagination.”
Christine Bennett - Charles Clifford Dental Hospital, Sheffield
"The Murals have brightened the space, creating a more welcoming and comforting environment. They've been a hit with both children and parents, helping to ease anxiety and bring a sense of calm during what can be a stressful time.”
Karen Timms - Paediatric ER, Kingston upon Thames Hospital
