Biography
Richards paintings focus predominantly on form. The subjects are a documentation of life and the environment. Through this he has developed a painterly language in response to his passion for the materiality of paint.
Using the subject as a vehicle, the information is transcribed into a work that celebrates the relationship between the suggested subject and its environment. At the same time it engages the viewer with its powerful sensation of colour.
Richard's paintings are a submissive response to the subject, and the paint takes on a life that emulates and sustains that subject's individual properties.
Ultimately, the fluidity of brushwork results in an interplay between the image and the materiality of paint, a vibration between colour and subject. It produces a surface quality admired by other painters and one that is imbued with unmistakable intrigue.
