The Magnificent Beauty of Forever More | 2023
Richard Rowan’s incredible artistry comes to Castle Fine Art once again with more stunning mixed media artworks in the Forever More collection based on his love of the Finnish wilderness. With his previous Forever More collection selling out in just half an hour, we don’t expect these beautifully detailed paintings to be around for long.
In a fusion of a print and an original, a monochromatic silhouette has been printed onto the glass and then returned to Richard’s skilled hands to paint he intricate background layers. The result is a breathtaking series of artworks that beautifully showcase the ever-changing splendour of various seasons and timeless moments within the same captivating setting. Richard aims to allow collectors to escape from everyday life, and these atmospheric scenes act as a reminder to us all that no matter where you are, there is always growth and change.

Richard Rowan
“I do like to challenge myself with difficult work. Painting oil on glass can make you want to tear your hair out but is also satisfying at the same time. When I sit down to paint,I want to paint better than the last time,pushing the boundaries of what I can do.”
The artist
Richard Rowan
From the Icelandic wilderness to the fiery horizons of Thailand and towering mountains of Norway to spectacular Scotland, his atmospheric scenes allow viewers to escape from everyday life, creating a sense of intrigue in any living space. Richard is the only artist to be creating art in this style, and his incredible landscapes are so detailed that they are often mistaken for photographs, when in fact each one has been meticulously painted by hand using his reverse painting technique.
As the only fine artist successfully creating artworks in this style, Richard has become a part of the history of the glass art form, which dates back to Roman times and can also be seen in the Gothic period. Unlike canvas, glass interacts with the light, bringing his works to sparkling life.
