About The Artwork

"Ciao dell' Italia" is an abstract painting from my Artist Residence at La Macina di San Cresci, Greve in Chianti, Italy, during the lovely weather of September, 2018. The painting was unresolved in Italy, as I had difficulty resolving the space between the two dark blue upper and lower elements, and could not find a way to close out the work Opening the canvas two years later in the studio, I discovered through meditation and boldly working, the means to finish.Yellow was added at center, the upper left blue reduced in area, and a blue swipe brazenly placed at center for balance. It is risky of course going back in time to catch up with the present in an artwork, but fresh painting added dynamism and resolution to the subdued but brilliant canvas.

Painting is my passion. Landscape architecture is my profession. I paint large abstract canvases plein-air by the ocean in Rhode Island, and in the vineyards of Tuscany, Italy. My paintings are about nature, and the nature of painting and drawing. Through color, line, and the creation of form, I search for order and meaning. Thematically, my interests center on the landscape abstracted, and pure abstraction in painting. Aerial perspectives, shorthand figure markings, spectrum paints, accidents, and deliberate risk engage, disrupt, and enhance my Art. Over the last several years, I have completed extended stays at Artist's Residences, including Fruitlands Museum, Harvard MA; Tuscany; Nantucket; and Wyoming. These places greatly influence my work emotionally, and fill my canvases with the light, landscape, and culture observed in these dramatically different environments. As a traditionalist, love of family, world travel, classical literature and music, hiking, and gardening provide life’s greatest pleasures. Galleriy representation includes Saatchi Art, Singulart, Providence Art Club, Arts and Business Council of Greater Boston, DeCordova Museum Corporate Lending Program, and Gallery Twist Richard's award winning art is exhibited locally and internationally, with works sold in the US, Italy, Germany, and Spain, with paintings and drawings collected in renowned public and private venues.
