Stephen was born in Huddersfield, England in 1947. Although he was in art, and clearly gifted artistically from an early age, he chose to go to teachers training college at Liverpool University, concentrating on the sciences.
After an initial career as a teacher, he became a professional portrait artist and supplemented his income as an illustrator of children's comics. In 1981 he bought a boat and developed his love of the sea and sailing. He turned to painting sailing shops and his work quickly became very popular with marine art enthusiasts and art dealers.
Stephen Renard is presently regarded as one of the world's leading painters of yachting subjects and is widely acknowledged as one of the most raoidly rising commercial successes in this field.
