We are fascinated by the feminine body, esthetic. Women are layered, with textures and life and intricacy. Women are sensual, sexual, powerful creatures. Richard's works expose those layers, inviting the viewer to be moved, to be intrigued by complexity of emotions, essence and energy, an entanglement of conflicting ideas. Intimacy that shrouds the female form in surreal beauty. Images that strip away layers to reveal vulnerability, cruelty and pain. Images wrapped in sensuality, disguised in eroticism, bathed in texture, light, darkness and beauty.
Richards early influences are artist such as Gottfried Helnwein, David Lynch, Peter Greenaway, H R Giger, R Crumb, Nick Cave, Sarah Moon, David Hamilton, Byron, Blake, Dual Duo Jets, and many more. His work and distinct style is now an influence for others who venture to capture snapshots of life.
