Jean RichardsonJean Richardson's artwork expresses the spirit and the energy of the American West. Through it, we are reminded of the roots of our land which might otherwise have been forgotten; her extraordinary vision is expressive of a world not yet "tamed". Jean has enjoyed a tremendous painting career, and has also begun to express herself in the print media, preserving her painterly style in her unique approach towards her editions. Her style has been described as "contemporary abstraction with suggestions of figurative symbolism". Subject matter is often secondary, and simply suggested; the works engage viewers to draw from themselves some feelings of the land from which these prints draw their inspiration. Richardson received her B.F.A. from Wesleyan College. She has also attended the Art Students League in New York City, and has taught art in public schools and museums. She has had numerous gallery showings and one-woman shows across the United States. Original Acrylic on Canvas: Halo Kith and Kin Merry Makers |
