Consultations
One-to-one advice from an art historian and curator
Drawing on my training at The Courtauld Institute of Art, my experience at Christie’s, and my everyday work with estate collections, I offer focused, friendly sessions for collectors, owners of inherited pieces, and artists.
Sessions
-
Collector Consultation
Advice on starting or growing a collection: what to look for, where to buy, how to judge prices, and how to build a collection that reflects you.
For: New collectors and anyone furnishing a home with art.
Book & pay -
Art & Object Assessment
Send me photographs of a painting, print or object. I’ll give you an informed opinion on what it is, its likely history, and your options for selling or caring for it.
For: People with inherited, estate or flea-market pieces they’d like to understand.
Please note: this is an informal assessment based on photographs and my professional experience. It is not a formal appraisal and cannot be used for insurance, tax, estate or legal purposes. For a certified appraisal, I’m happy to recommend a qualified appraiser.
Book & pay -
Artist Career Session
Honest, practical feedback on how you present your work: your portfolio, artist statement, pricing, and next steps toward galleries and collectors.
For: Emerging and early-career artists.

How It Works
- Choose a session and a time with the “Book & pay” button. Sessions are available on Wednesdays and Sundays, at least two days ahead.
- Pay securely when you book. You’ll receive a confirmation email with a video-call link.
- We meet by video. For assessments, please send clear photographs beforehand: front, back, any signature or labels, and measurements.
Cancel at least one day before your session for a full refund; you can also reschedule from your confirmation email. Consultations offer professional opinion and guidance only. They are not formal appraisals, authentication, or financial, legal or investment advice.
