Born in Sydney in 1970, Ralph Heimans studied Fine Arts and Pure Mathematics at the University of Sydney and later at the Julian Ashton Art School.
...
Ralph Heimans moved to Paris in 1997, following a commission from the European Court in Luxembourg and began a string of portraits for London-based collectors.
...
Amongst these works, Ralph Heimans' self portrait was exhibited in the National Portrait Gallery in London, and his portrait of the French National Rugby team was hung in the Hotel de Ville in Paris.Recent projects include a major corporate commission in Dubai, portraits for the Australian National Trust and the University of Melbourne.The first official portrait of Princess Mary of Denmark represents Ralph Heimans' most prestigious commission to date.Unveiled by the Princess on 7th April 2006 at the National History Museum of Denmark, the painting was celebrated as representing an innovative approach to the genre of Royal Portraiture.It received widespread critical acclaim in Danish, European and Australian Media.Ralph Heimans' work has been described to have a disarming quality, recalling the methods and conventions of 16th and 17th century European portraiture, while at the same time playfully undermining those traditions.Although his technical approach pays homage to masters like Caravaggio and Velazquez, particularly in the use of chiaroscuro, his subject matter is distinctly contemporary, drawing inspiration from technology and images of modern life.His work is a departure from the way in which portraiture, and the process of commissioning art, is generally understood.Rather than conventionally depicting his subjects, his paintings offer a detailed narrative about their character and life story.

"With three works in the National Portrait Gallery, Ralph Heimans is one of Australia's premier portrait artists.
...
"Australian portrait painter Ralph Heimans is a globe-trotting jobbing painter, and now one with a royal warrant from Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary of Denmark."
...
