Richard Gibson

After receiving his BA(hons) degree in Fine Art Richard spent 2 years studying paintings conservation before working as an Artist's Assistant for Ben Johnson in London. In 2009 he moved to Bath where he began working full time on his own paintings.
His love of nature and interest in gardening has encouraged him to concentrate on flowers, fruit and vegetables, much of which he has sourced from his own garden.
Combining these with decorative backgrounds has produced representational works with both a vivid and dynamic concern with colour as well as a strong sense of physical presence.
