Artist Statement:
Michael Richardson is based in
Kent on the East Coast of
England. He paints in oils and
watercolour in a figurative /
modern impressionist style.
His main concern is with the
effect of light and the way in
which it can challenge our
preconceptions of what
something should look like.
To an extent the appearance of
our surroundings is always an
illusion in that the
particular atmospheric
conditions in which a scene is
viewed will probably never
precisely recur.
The way in which light can
change an object or a scene is
something that has to be
studied and as much as
possible understood to give
authenticity to the work and
is perhaps the most exciting
and rewarding part of working
"en plein air, sur le motif".
He makes frequent short visits
to favourite haunts in Europe
and elsewhere using his
motorhome as a travelling
studio and is hoping to revive
the illustrated painters
travel diary format in the
next few years with some
longer journeys. Any
publishers out there?
As a member of the famous
Wapping Group of Artists he
spends many Wednesday
afternoons painting somewhere
on the River Thames recording
Londons magnificent river in
all her many moods.
