Statement:
I studied
Art at Amersham School of Art in 1988 and followed this with a career in
Graphic Design always maintaining my passion for drawing and painting along the
way. Moving to
beautiful
Bath inspired me to move from life drawing back to ‘en plein air’ painting.
Bath has
the
architecture, light and atmosphere any artist would fall in love with and there
is so much to
paint.
The enthusiasm of the public when painting constantly amazes me.
I recommend street painting to anyone and
everyone and I love passing on the
enjoyment
in my classes.
“Richard’s
unique style of broad sweeping brush strokes brimming with ‘Jo
ie de
vivre’ is ideally suited to the remarkable backdrops and light to be found in
this beautiful city. These remarkable backdrops are interpreted by Richard with
vibrancy, light and shade, thrilling brush strokes and unusual perspectives.”

The Mission Gallery)
