Commissioned Work
Lizzy Hewitt’s artworks have become increasingly sought after and collectable. She has been commissioned by many BBC celebrities and top-end businesses for bespoke portraits.
​
In her earlier artworks, she creates large-scale, imaginative environments of people and place. Through Hewitt's distinctive wide-angle perspective, these artworks are full of interesting and amusing details. Her wide-angle people and ‘wonky’ buildings even caught the attention of the NHS, who subsequently commissioned her. Colour is always important in Hewitt's work, inspired by the great colourists such as Vincent Van Gogh. Combining her past influences, she is presently working on a series of modern portraits in oil of key figures in the artistic fields and popular culture.

"Lizzy and I worked on the basic idea for this portrait together but the final picture came as a wonderful surprise! The old & the new, the then & now, radio as entertainment, radio as theatre, there are so many ways to take it, as many ways as the picture's being used, on websites and blogs, business cards & on mugs! Lizzy is so amazingly talented."
Mitch De Faria, Broadcaster
Stean's Yard, commission
Pen & ink and watercolour.
"I loved living at Stean's Yard & Lizzy's picture sums up everything that was wonderful about it, the colour & approachability of the building, the wild gardens & darling Harry who appeared in the completed painting. I liked it so much that when the house was sold the picture was used in the sales particulars."
Ches Baker, commission
Pen & ink and watercolour.
"I love this picture, Liz has somehow translated her observations on my personality into this quirky drawing. Fantastic stuff. I use this drawing rather than a photo of myself to promote my website".
