Born and bred in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire, I became a well respected wildlife artist and illustrator before being commissioned to carry out work for Yorkshire Television. 

​

In 2000 I became a freelance artist and although still exhibiting fine art in galleries across the Country, I now specialise in scenic work. Using techniques and specialist knowledge I can replicate the smallest image to a large scale mural whilst maintaining intricate detail as well as specialising in marbling, ageing, optical illusions and much more.

​

Now based in Harrogate, my portfolio includes museums such as Royal Armouries, National Railway Museum, Tower of London and Castle Museum in York. I have also completed work for restaurant chains including Zaap, pubs and themed venues.

​

I also specialise in pet portraits, for a quote please get in touch at ricduffield@gmail.com.
