| Admirers of Yorkshire marine artist
Jack Rigg's work invariably cite his treatment of the sea and the sky
as the main attraction of his work, and perhaps the greatest tribute
to his skills is the fact that fishermen are among the biggest buyers
of his paintings.
Jack Rigg was born in Farsley, near Leeds, West
Yorkshire, and gained his love of the sea during service in the Royal
Navy.
From the outset he had a preference for marine
paintings, and in 1978 took the decision to give up work and take up
painting professionally. Since then Jack Rigg has become one of the
UK's leading marine artists. Jack Rigg has sold paintings as far as
the United States, the Middle East and Australasia.
