Richard was born in Torquay where the sea had a big impression on him from a young age. The sea continues to give him inspiration today and is a constant source of subject matter. Paintings of the rugged hills and streams of Dartmoor also show his affinity with nature and the landscape.
Richard began his painting career in the early 80's after a long sojourn in London playing Jazz. Since those early days his paintings have been sold and exhibited in many leading galleries throughout the UK as well as America, Taiwan and South Korea.
Recently, after having his work accepted for the last 4 years at the Royal Institute (for painters in watercolour) open exhibitions, he has won 2 awards for best watercolour.
He was also invited to participate in the Quingdao International Watercolour Exhibition 2019 where he won an excellent work award.
Light, texture and distance are his principal concerns. “For me, painting is a continuum – an exploration. But watercolour is a medium that seems to be always one step ahead”.
