Artwork for 2020


Over the past year I have focused on building my presence on Instagram - which can be found by searching richardwithamart - rather than my blog spot here. Now we have entered 2020 and a new decade I look forward to igniting my blog again bringing visitors a selection of new work for sale and feature articles on the general art world.


For now please click on the below link to view artwork I have for sale and I look forward to posting new work and features starting in February 2020.

Matisse - for my Wife

My wife did not have a few millions £s to buy a Matisse collage so she asked me to create one for her at a much lower cost - nothing!! This is a simple cut card collage trying to capture the feel of Matisse - she seems to like it!!

Scott Grey Still Life

I have been quite distracted by other work and sadly the artwork has had to take second place which it may have to for a short while to come.

In the meantime I have had time to finish off a large canvas which carries on the William Scott still life theme.




Set in a natural wood surround frame measuring 43" x 33" x 3"

Still Life with charcoal


This was more an exercise in learning how to use charcoal pencils rather than creating a still life!! Having now learnt how messy it can be it has not deterred me from exploring the use of pencils in the future once I have more time to spend on my art and I have cleared up the current mess I made with this one [thank you Ben Nicholson once again!!].



 

The backboard was undercoated in texture medium then dry brush painted before the shapes were created with medium and hard charcoal pencils.

Set behind glass in a shallow wood box frame finished in white - 29" x 21" x 2"
