FAMILY Give the gift of art


Richard Butterfield was born and raised in Barnsley and developed a passion for art during his studies at Barnsley College of Art.


As a young man, he fled


the nest to study illustration at Falmouth University but was drawn back to his South Yorkshire roots.


In his early career, Richard was


an in-house illustrator for Hallmark cards and worked on a huge array of licensed lines from the likes of Walt Disney to the beloved Forever Friends. For over 20 years Richard has


been a freelance illustrator and has completed work for the World Wildlife Fund, Penguin Books and the National Coal Mining Museum. However, what he gets the most satisfaction from is the


emotions evoked by the individuals who commission him to produce private pieces. He offers a personal service and is happy to visit customers in their own home to discuss their individual requirements. Richard has captured loved


ones and faithful friends from the past and present. His work is very much a labour of love, with each portrait taking between 20 to 60 hours to complete. Although, the


Richard at work


time he dedicates to each piece isn’t reflected in the prices which start from £150. A bespoke piece of art is


one-of-a-kind, something that people can enjoy for years to come. Not only does it last a lifetime, but it’s filled with sentiment that few other objects can rival. If you are looking for a special


birthday, wedding, Christmas or anniversary gift, what could be more original, thoughtful and fulfilling.
