Description

Richard Grenville was born in Hove, Sussex and at the age of just six months, he started his long association with ships. First he crossed the Atlantic by Liner, moved from the USA to Barbados and onto Singapore where he began sailing at a very early age. When he was 11 years old the family took the slow route by cargo ship back to the UK. Whilst growing up he spent many happy hours on the water in the varied boats his father owned and as a family they spent nearly all their summer holidays yachting. An activity he still enjoys today.

A graduate of Brighton College of Art and Design he left with a First (1.1) degree. After spending over a decade in Design and Architecture he became a full-time artist in 1989. Mostly working for Architectural, Aviation and Military clients he has also done much work in the offshore Oil and Gas Exploration sector. He has had many maritime painting commissions including book illustration and exhibited several times with the Royal Society of Marine Artists in London.
