"Cycladic Figures" is a figurative abstract painting completed after a visit to the Anthropological Museum in Naxos, Greece, during my Artist Residence at "To The Garden", on Paros, a small island in the Aegean Sea. The work is influenced by Cycladic figures observed that tend to be small in scale but extraordinarily large in presence, thus transferred as ideas to the canvas. The figure drawing appears easy and rapid though a very concentrated, considerable time was spent in translating the effects of the 2000 year old marble statuary to a contemporary representation with charcoal and brush. Colors represent the dry, desert like ,rocky, barren, but beautiful landscapes of the Greek Islands.

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.
