Diana Richardson

Based in Brighton, Diana Richardson creates vibrant, expressive paintings that celebrate the spirit of animals. After a successful career in financial services, she decided to embrace her lifelong passion for art in 2024, transforming what was once a cherished hobby into a flourishing artistic practice.

Her work is characterized by bold colors, dynamic textures, and an urban edge, offering a fresh perspective on animal art. Diana’s creative process thrives on experimentation, using acrylic paints alongside unconventional tools like cardboard stencils and everyday objects to infuse each piece with energy and character.

A key feature of her work is her focus on the eyes of her subjects, capturing their depth, emotion, and individuality. Through this, Diana creates an immediate connection between the viewer and the animals she portrays.

Each painting is a celebration of animal life, meticulously layered to convey their vitality and
charm. Through her contemporary colourful animal art, Diana seeks to bring joy and wonder
into homes, sharing her love of animals and creativity with the world.
