Julian Drake has undertaken a number of commissions for The Painted Plate.
Subjects have ranged from scenes of the Sheffield steel works to churches, manor houses, curlews, musical instruments and more comic themes such as Frisbee frolics, fast cars and pipes! There is no end of Julian’s talent to capture the spirit of the occasion.

JULIAN'S TESTIMONIAL
Julian painted several plates for me as gifts for family and friends, from simple to exotic and intricate designs. I was extremely satisfied and delighted upon seeing the finished results and the recipients were thrilled with their unique and original presents. They arrived by post – surviving the journey very well due to supreme packaging. All in all it was a great success and I happily recommend The Painted Plate to others.

Commissions are usually painted onto plates which lend themselves to becoming a canvas, but can also be painted onto other pottery items such as bowls, jugs and mugs. Prices vary depending on the size of the item to be painted and the complexity of the design. Orders need to be placed at least a month ahead and a deposit will be required at the time of booking. Please e-mail or ring for more information.
PERSONALISED GIFTS
  
If you would like a simple message on a mug, plate or even a dog bowl then we will be happy to oblige. These are an inexpensive way to obtain a personalised gift for those people with unusual names, or a present for a special pet! Check out the commissions gallery for some examples.
A mail order service is available for these items. Payment will be required in advance.
