Richard Laliberte

Richard LaLiberte is an American Artist who resides in Chicago. The settings in my artwork showcase a fusion of landscape, and a appreciation of nature in our environment involving the human figure. My most recent work “ Fusion Monoliths “ is a group of acrylic paintings that combine radiant lighting with monumental forms and robust colors. A second series titled “ Figures in Landscape “ combines found objects and metallic modeling paste. My third series “ Eclectic Dreams “ are acrylic paintings that envision the human figure engulfed in translucent colors and invokes an “ Out of Body Experience in a Dream like Environment “ . Artists that have influenced my work include Edward Hopper, Raphael, Paul Outerbridge and Roger Dean.
