Peacock wearing glasses!

I was contacted by Andrew Jelley Opticians to create a bespoke piece of art as a retirement gift for a member of staff!

A peacock for a Mrs Peacock, wearing a pair of beautiful flamboyant glasses.

This was a fun and quirky piece of work and I spent a lot of time studying imagery of peacocks to achieve a flowing appearing to the tail feathers.

Following this piece, I used some of my preparation work to create peacock themed greetings cards.

“When my wife retired after more than thirty years working for Andrew Jelley, expert Opticians of Tenbury Wells, the Staff presented her with a very fitting gift. This was a specially commissioned painting of an exquisite, bespectacled peacock that now occupies pride of place on our living room wall to act as a constant reminder of a very happy working life and the thoughtfulness of her work colleagues. To have a painting so well executed and so appropriate to her personally is a very special gift.
We are more than happy to commend Sarah Patel to whomever might want to commission her. She will do a wonderful job.”
