This popular series depicts people spending a day at the seaside, typically gathered on the sea wall for a group photograph.

Using pebbles as heads British artist Jacqueline Hammond caricatures people and life in modern British society. With over fifty paintings in the Pebble Heads series to date, the majority specially commissioned by clients, this forms a large body of work. A selection of these commissioned pieces and other originals are detailed below.

• Write down your requirements and ideas for the piece – Who? Where? Why? What for?
• Attach a clear photo/s of the people to be included. Ideally include a group photo, and from the waist up. Give indication of the difference in heights between people and note down what they look like now, hair colour, style, colour of eyes etc.
• It’s useful to suggest any prominent characteristics or personality traits, dress sense, hobbies that help identify the individual and might be incorporated into the scene or influence the painting in some way. Example: “I am generally very smiley; Laura is a chatterbox, and Pete is a grumpy old dad!”
