End Of The Day – Original

Ric Duffield was born in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire & from an early age was drawing and painting the native wildlife.

Having studied art and music at teacher training college, in 1974 Ric Duffield went on to become an illustrator.

In 2001 he became a freelance artist & his skills have brought recognition in both wildlife and landscape painting.

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.
