Frequently Asked Questions


How much do your house/building paintings cost?

I have two pricing brackets, based on size and if you’d like it to be framed:

A4

Unframed with a mount: from £200

Framed: from £340

A3

Unframed with a mount: from £250

Framed: from £400

*Please note, exact sizes vary based on shape of the building, the A4/A3 reference is the size of paper used, the mount and frame are then on top of this.

Order of service paintings:

If you are after an image purely for your order of service, e.g the Church, I can do this for you without any mount or frame. The painting will then be yours to do what you like for reproduction. Please email me for an exact quote as this will depend on the size of the building.

Can I add personalised details?

Absolutely! All of my work is 100% bespoke so I can add any details you wish. For example, a pet in the forefront of your house, a special vintage on a wine bottle, your initials on the wine glasses etc. Just let me know when you order, there is no extra charge.

or £50 for 6 A6 cards

Please let me know what you are after or if you are unsure, I am happy to make some suggestions! If you have a specific date you need it by, please let me know. The card will then be posted to you with the envelope.

Can I choose the framing wood and how do you make the frames?

You can pick from a range of framing wood that I have available. All of my frames are made bespoke to fit the painting once it’s finished. It’s helpful to think about the style of the interior of where it’s going to go so that the frame matches. My most popular frame is the lime washed oak frame as it’s a very versatile style.

What is your lead time?

My general lead time is 4 weeks from receiving the image/details of what you’d like. However leading up to Christmas, times may vary up to 6 weeks. Please order as far in advance as possible to avoid missing out.

How do I order?

Please send me the details of the painting you’d like to philippagardner@hotmail.com with the following details:

  • For a house painting:

    • A photo of the house/building from the angle you want it to be painted. If you have a preferred photo, please send this.

    • Any additional details you’d like added, such as a pet outside/ wisteria in bloom etc.

    • If you’d like it to be unframed or framed

    • If framed, please let me know which framing wood you’d like.

How does delivery work and is there a charge?

Delivery is £20 for drop off within the London area or you can collect for free from my home in Parsons Green/Fulham. If you live further afield, I will quote a delivery charge as this will depend on if the painting is framed or unframed due to weight. I will only ever pass on the exact shipping cost, so I can let you this know once posted.
