George Richmond Portrait Paintings

British, 1809-1896

George Richmond was an English painter and portraitist, born in the UK in 1809. In his youth, he was a member of the Ancients, a group of followers of William Blake. He was a keen follower of cricket, always to be found at Lords. Richmond was a long life friend of Samuel Palmer and was a fellow student of Edward Calvert and Thomas Sidney Cooper. Richmond's later works are portraits of prominent figures of the day such as William Wilberforce. He is buried at Highgate Cemetery. Perhaps his most famous painting is a portrait of Charlotte Bronte, now held at the National Portrait Gallery.

Sleeping Girls - contemporary, figurative, portrait, acrylic, oil on board

This realistic painting, a portrait of children, is by internationally recognized artist Daniel Hughes. Daniel Hughes is known best perhaps for his true-to-life figurative paintings.

He grew up drawing…never in color books but on six-foot lengths of computer paper. Hughes was especially drawn to the figurative paintings of British artists of the 1950s. His aesthetic focuses on a realistic interpretation, composition, light, harmony, and emotion. Hughes' work, like this acrylic and charcoal painting of two little girls sleeping...
