Customer comments and general praise for my work:

"[Neil's] paintings have a strong sense of emotion, narrative and personality."
Stephen Shankland
(BP Portrait Award winner 2004)

"The portraits are brilliant. Really unflinching. [Losing Mel] is stunning. Like a Raymond Carver story on canvas; so much life encapsulated in a tiny space... I feel a little in awe."
Billy Ivory (Writer of A Thing Called Love, BBC, 2005)

"Truly beautiful, Sunset #1 graces our living room and is a constant pleasure to look at. Thanks for all your help, from consultation to creating a unique work for us, and for the help in mounting it! By the way, the internet doesn't do proper justice to Neil's sense of light and colour that really lives through his paintings."
Alan Clifford (Presenter, BBC Radio Nottingham)

"A computer screen doesn't do them justice, but they still look good online. Of course, the best one of all is the moon-style painting hanging in my lounge! I will never part with it (unless you become famous, then I'll flog it on Ebay as "an early Heath")."
Brady Haran

"Having seen your work up close at Vans Cafe and at the Playhouse (and in my house!) I can assure everyone it's fantastic and much better than the internet can ever make it look! Good stuff Neil, keep it up!"
David Jackson

"I love the harmony of colours and the way they blend into each other - really beautiful. I also like the way they are reminiscent of many things, in nature, in space etc, but yet are abstract and kind of speak to the soul aswell. They are definitely 'an experience'."
Anna Cookson

"Fantastic. I'm proud to hang your art on my living room wall. It inspires, interests and fascinates me. Well done."
John Courtney

"Just like you to know I am very, very impressed with your work and even the wife thinks they are great and says if I put nice gold frames on them I can have them in the living room (unbelievable!)."
