Artist Penny Richardson
lives in the village of Exton between the towns of Oakham in Rutland and Stamford in Lincolnshire.Penny has been painting pet portraits professionally since leaving Loughborough Art College in 1984. Penny was born in Harrogate in North Yorkshire and started her career as a Leicestershire artist at Northfield Farm, Cold Overton, near Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire. She specialises mainly in dog, cat and horse portraits and people portraiture, although she is also an accomplished landscape and floral painter.
Penny's preferred painting medium is gouache for pet portraits, as this medium enables fine detail and a rich use of colour giving tremendous amount of realism.
