JC Richard

JC Richard is a Commercial & Fine Artist from Salem, Massachusetts. Best known for his picturesque art prints and movie posters, his past and current commercial work includes illustration, concept & design for Disney, Marvel, Lucasfilm, DC, Universal, Sony Entertainment and the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. He has cultivated a dedicated collector following around the world, and has exhibited prints and originals in galleries from New York to LA, San Francisco, Chicago and Austin, as well as internationally in such locales as Singapore and China. He also assists with Creative Direction and Artist Development for Cyclops Print Works / Disney Fine Art.

A lifelong Disney fan, he is always excited to be able to bring these iconic characters into organic settings, hopefully re-telling familiar stories in ways that make them fresh and relevant to new audiences. "Disney has played a large part in my artistic development, even in the past few years. I'm also constantly drawn to the thematic and artistic aspects of the Disney parks--the immersive nature of the lands, the tiny themed details Imagineers placed into the attractions and structures to help tell their story. It's really no different than what I try to do within a single image--striving to make these characters live and breathe, to convey strengths and emotions through their visual relationship to the environment and each other."
