General
Richy K. Chandler is the creative force behind Tempo Lush.
Click on Images below for Larger View...
After earning a diploma at Wimbledon School of Art, Richy graduated from Camberwell College of Arts with a degree in Ceramics. He’s gone on to have work published in Britain, Germany and Japan, including cartoons, logo designs, comic strips, cd covers and illustrations.
When he’s not working on comics and artwork he’ll most likely be found writing, recording and performing eclectic pop music as Last Precious Cookie.
Richy has lived in the big city of London all his life, except in 2000-2001 when he lived in the even bigger city of Tokyo.
He currently lives in North London with his wife and young son, on the top floor of a little house. Some nights the entire top floor separates from the rest of the house and flies off into space. Not every night though.
