Ric Machin caricaturist London has hosted his second one man show of caricature oil paintings and prints. He has been cartooning and drawing all his life. His earliest professional work using his art was restoring fine porcelain in a small workshop in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.

Since returning to England in 2001 he has hosted three one man exhibitions of oil paintings in London’s West End. Ric Machin Studios is now established and provides art and entertainment for weddings and corporate events. His goal is to expand the Studio, and pass on some of his knowledge to the next generation of artists who have an artistic talent and may want to consider it as a career. It involved matching the style and brushwork on Meissen, Satsuma and Imari porcelain antiques.

He then spent 25 years in Cartoon Animation, in London, New York and South Korea. This was mainly commercial work. He also carried out some series and feature work overseas for Disney and Warner Brothers Animation on the Animated Batman Series.

He has recently hosted lectures and seminars and would like to see that develop more fully. Perhaps publishing notes and sketches from his career in the cartoon and animation world. Ric’s portraits capture some of the most recognisable celebrities of the late 20th / early 21st century, in pencil, digital and oil on canvas.
