The English landscape painter James Stark grew up in Norwich. His father worked there as a dye manufacturer and successfully managed his own dye business. During this time his father, Michael Stark, created the formula for the dye "Norwich Red" and became very famous. Br/> Perhaps these formative impressions from his childhood also led to James Stark's early attraction to colors and eventually to painting and drawing. So it was not surprising that the 17-year-old James completed an apprenticeship with the English painter John Crome . At that time Crome was already known for his originality and his detailed paintings. John Crome worked for years as a drawing master at the Norwich School, which he had founded. He was now able to pass on his extensive experience as a teacher to James Stark, who devoted himself to painting and drawing with great determination. For James, the practice of this artistic work was central to his life and he constantly strived for perfection.
