Ricky Brookfield is a Melbourne/Naam based emerging artist predominantly working with oil. His style leans heavily into fantasy specialising in portraiture, still life, and animals.
Ricky has been a tattoo artist for over 10 years and is currently a resident artist at Melbourne Compendium Tattoo Studio and Gallery. This is where he began his passion for painting. Being surrounded by many great artists and an array of beautiful artworks has profoundly impacted his practice and is a continued source of inspiration.
Ricky’s skills developed from drawing at a young age, gravitating to realism and portraiture. He continues to deepen his learning with each new piece and tattoo commission, spending hours honing his technique.
