Anthony Randall





"I have always admired the forms and colors that occur in Nature. Living in Hawaii, the fish and flowers of this tropical island have been my greatest inspiration. As an avid snorkeler and gardener, I find my subjects everywhere. I try to reflect in my paintings this variation of form, boldness of color, and playfulness of subjects."

Anthony Randall was born in 1953 in Los Angeles, California. He attended Cal State Northridge, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree, specializing in textile design and printing. He launched Anthony Randall Fabric, a collection of hand painted and printed fabrics. Noted for his award winning desgins, he created collections for Indeco Enterprises, Dan River, Inc., Luis Esteves, and Scandia Down Shops.

In 1988, Mr. Randall moved to Maui, signing on as Art Director for the newly formed Island Fabric Company. As Art Director, he styled and produced a nationally distributed line of tropical fabrics and wall coverings.

In 1990, Mr. Randall moved to Oahu to concentrate on his own distinctive style of painting. The final result is his collection of tropical "Fish and Flowers". These paintings are bold and colorful, as well as, playful. His distinctive style of hard line combine with soft blending of color truly sets his work apart from others.

Painting for all it's imperfections is always an expression of love, to behold and to share.
