Welcome to Butterfly-Butterfly!
Step into a world of creativity and transformation, where each piece tells a story. Here, you’ll discover a collection of handcrafted items inspired by my three creative principles: Unique. Handcrafted. Affordable.
After 25 years of professionally painting toy soldiers, I felt the urge to expand my passion for paint into other arts and crafts. In my search for inspiration, I found myself haunted by butterflies—a common motif in art. Taking this as a sign, I named my new venture Butterfly-Butterfly.
My creations reflect my mood and inspiration, but each piece is crafted with the intention of being as individual as possible. I strive to uphold my core principles:
Unique
Each item is designed to be as close as possible to a one-of-a-kind piece, crafted with care and purpose.
Handcrafted
I believe that tools and machines should support the artist, not replace them. It is the eye, heart, and hands that create true art.
Affordable
By keeping my overhead low and using recycled and repurposed materials whenever possible, I ensure that anyone who appreciates my work can own a piece for a modest investment.
I view my work not just as a commercial venture but as an exchange. I transform my time and materials into something more beautiful than the sum of its parts—creating unique pieces that never existed before.
As you browse my page, I hope you find something that resonates with you—something you’re willing to invest in, something you will treasure, or perhaps pass on to someone who will appreciate it. Where applicable, my work comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and a bio detailing the piece.
Private Commissions and Collaborations
I welcome private commissions from individuals and businesses, and I’m open to collaborative projects that inspire creativity. I’m committed to understanding your vision and ensuring that each project reflects my dedication and artistry. My rates start at £15 per hour, plus the cost of materials.
