Helen Chadfield
Artist and Illustrator
Thank you for visiting my website,
I hope you enjoy looking around
I am an artist based in south west Scotland. I enjoy painting and drawing a variety of subjects, including pet portraits, landscapes and the unusual and quirky. Examples of my different styles of work are shown below and there are regular updates about what I’m painting (and general musing) on the News page.
There are also original paintings, cards, prints and gifts available to buy via the Shop menu. Please visit the different pages for more information and/or to purchase.
I am also happy to consider commissions.
Please have a browse!

Small Artworks Collection
I use a variety of media to create my art: pencils, pastels, ink and acrylic paint, or a combination of these. I like to choose the media which I think is most suited to the subject of the work, and enjoy experimenting to find out what works best.
I don’t paint in oils- if you are after a beautiful oil painting, please visit the website of my friend, established artist, Angela Lawrence at
Without this lady I wouldn’t have had the confidence to dip a toe in the art world. I am very grateful to her!
