Arethea Painting by Richard Garnham

Born in London Richard took to art at an early age, at school, he was told by legendary local art teacher, Barry Clarke, that he was the most gifted pupil he had ever taught. But art wasn't going to be Richards chosen career in life, only undertaking occasional commissions for friends and family. Now later in life he has decided to restart his passion for art. He is self taught and has the ability to work with any medium of paint, oil, acrylic, water colour or pencil. His favourite style is large paintings of iconic stars of the past and present. He says they always make an impact when people walk into rooms. Only starting in 2014 he's rapidly building a reputation for producing stunning large iconic paintings. His work is now being displayed on Saatchi Art and he feels that this is a great platform for his work. Please enjoy his work, it really is very cool!
