Richard moved to Lincolnshire in 1980. From 1982-1984 he gave private tuition to two amateur painting groups and started to paint pet portraits. He moved to Wragby in 1986 where he now works from his studio at his home, which he shares with his wife Frances, and Barney the dog.

He is a regular exhibitor at open exhibitions and galleries in Lincolnshire. He gives demonstrations in oil painting and holds regular one-day workshops for local art groups, and designs and paints sets for a local amateur dramatic society

Take a look at Richard's Galleries for his pet portraits, surreal and still life paintings, and his commercial work. Many of his paintings are for sale in his shop. There is also a demonstration of how he produces a pet portrait from start to finish and a section for frequently asked questions. The catalogue and shop pages for his prints, cards and paintings are also here as well as links to other sites you may find interesting.
