Henry Baker

Henry Baker is a painter living in Oxford, England. His signature style is marked by the expertly painted stripes of color he uses. Each color is carefully mixed and painstakingly applied, creating a sense of movement in his work. Baker works primarily in gouache, which allows him to apply vibrant and even color.

Baker’s expertise is not limited to this application of paint, however. He is also incredibly skilled at painting realistic animal portraits as you can see below. Which animal is your favorite? I am partial to the bull, because of the phenomenal job he does at depicting the shaggy hair!
