A self-taught artist, Richard was born in 1964 at Fordingbridge in Hampshire, and graduated in Art History at York University in 1986. In 1988 he moved to Glasgow, where he executed a series of major commissions in the city and became established as a figurative artist with a series of successful solo shows. He moved to Lavant in West Sussex in 2010, and exhibits at galleries and art fairs throughout the UK and Ireland.
Richard's 2010 show Museum Pieces in Glasgow’s renowned Kelvingrove Museum was the culmination of a major series of works in the form of a dialogue between our contemporary world and the past, combining elements from works of art of bygone eras with present-day figures, man-made objects, animals and even landscapes. There can be links or contrasts (sometimes humorous) between these different elements; sometimes different eras can seem to merge in a dreamlike synthesis that transcends time and place. The paintings are like mysterious riddles, with no obvious or final answer, the interpretation left to the viewer’s imagination- and always inviting a new solution.
In 2011 Richard's Edinburgh solo show, ironically titled “Useless Fictions”, focused on great scientists of the past such as Newton, Galileo and Darwin, and combined religious imagery and elements from the natural world. In the same year Richard also completed a major commission for St. Bride's Church in Bothwell, Scotland – six large canvases which set Jesus’ Baptism in the context of local history, and incorporating miners and mill workers as well as Bothwell Castle.
Richard is currently preparing for a major commission of figurative work for the town of Cosenza in Southern Italy.
