Born and raised in Northampton, Richard Rowan found he had an adept ability with painting even at an early age and would spend hours at a time attempting differing colour combinations and arrangements in his pieces. During his training he won the Daily Mail's 'Artist of the Year' award which spurred on his passion for painting as he progressed through his college life also in Northampton. However, upon graduating from college he found that becoming a professional artist and designer alike was not only difficult but extremely frustrating, so for a time he left the art world to work in the motor-sport industry. For five years following this he traversed the world with his line of work, ranging from Rallying to Formula One. However whilst travelling he found himself sketching the cars and nearby scenery with any free time he had, eventually the spark was reignited once more and he left the industry to completely and fully devote himself to his artwork. At this time he developed his unique 'art on glass' medium, this has since been very popular with his works being distributed all across the globe.
