Richard likes to create images that allow his viewers and himself to see the world in new ways.
Richard began exploring photography in his teens. He was initially intrigued by the technical aspects of the medium. As he refined his technique, early mentors, recognizing his
mastery of technique at such a young age, encouraged him to explore beyond the boundaries of pure technical considerations, exposures and lighting. This idea and shift in focus allowed Richard to create images
that allow both himself, and his viewers, to see the world in new ways. While he never abandoned his technical precision, it is truly his natural ability to see that makes his art unique. On a journey of over
many years, he continues to push the boundaries of composition and to explore new technology. To those early mentors, and those who have influenced his work, he expresses his deepest gratitude.
He has crafted a style that melds technical precision with compelling composition.
Richard was honored by Nikon Corporation who selected his image, Twilight, for the internationally distributed 2007 Nikon Photo Contest International (NPCI
) calendar. The calendar was comprised of 13 photographs selected from the annual Nikon Contest which received 31,000 entries from 117 countries. Twilight is featured in the month of November.
Richard is pleased to exhibit in the Art Rental & Sales Gallery (ARSG) at LACMA (Los Angeles Country Museum of Art). His pieces, along with work from other
exceptional artists, can be viewed at the ARSG gallery. These work are available for purchase or rental, with a portion of the proceeds going to support LACMA. Richard is also represented by Gallery 825,
the Los Angeles Art Association.
Photography is Richard’s passion. He currently focuses on fine art limited edition pieces, editorial projects and gallery exhibition. He has sold many images to collectors.
