# About me

My name is Simon Wilson and I am a freelance Portrait Artist / Graphic Designer. Born in 1969 in a lovely town called Bournemouth which is located on the South Coast of Dorset England. I studied at Bournemouth and Poole College and gained many of my skills from there, however I have always had a passion for art from a very early age. Initially I started out doing logos and graphic design websites etc , now I do more portraits full time rather than logos or anything else. I have a large young family so working from home fits in around my four young children's hectic lifestyle. I am freelance and very fortunate to be doing something I love to do.

Painting portraits of People or Pets brings out the best of me I tend to lose myself in my work, I have a great attention to detail and make every portrait I paint a unique painting and a very special piece of art for my clients, Commissioning me to paint your loved one or pet is a statement of my talent being noticed and I guarantee I will give 150% to make you happy with the finished painting. My goal is to fulfil people's lives with a joy that my paintings bring to their life and to bring memories that will last a lifetime and can be handed down to future generations.
