2024

About the Item

"Wellies III" by Richard Gower seamlessly extends the enchanting narrative of outdoor joy within this original figure painting. Executed with oil on canvas, this framed masterpiece, signed and ready for display, brilliantly showcases Gower's mastery in the realm of impressionistic painting. Employing the impressionistic style, "Wellies III" skillfully portrays two figures wading in a pond amidst the serene backdrop of a field. The reflections of the figures gracefully dance on the rippling water, where one is adorned in vibrant red boots, while the other dons cheerful yellow boots and a striking red scarf. This deliberate contrast adds a delightful visual dynamic to the scene, beautifully capturing the essence of outdoor joy and camaraderie. Located for sale at Signet Contemporary Art in Chelsea and online, "Wellies III" beckons art enthusiasts to bring the enchantment of outdoor exploration into their living spaces. This piece, in tandem with its predecessors, masterfully encapsulates the innocence and shared happiness found in the simple pleasures of life. Artist Bio: Richard Gower embarked on his artistic journey at Batley College of Art in the 1980s, specialising in fine art and sculpture. Gower has developed a distinctive style, particularly evident in his renowned ‘Reflections’ series, where his practice revolves around observation and chance. Adopting a voyeuristic approach, Gower skilfully captures the fleeting moments of strangers’ daily activities. Richard Gower’s distinctive, unique style has attracted a number of high-profile collectors includ- ing Her Late Majesty The Queen, The Duchess of York and The Lord Mayor of Westminster. Richard Gower’s works have found their place in numerous private collections across the UK, Europe, and the US. Richard Gower’s semi-abstracted, figurative compositions exude both serenity and intrigue, quietly beckoning viewers to construct narratives around the anonymous characters immortalized in oil paint. Gower’s ‘Reflections’ serve as snapshots, freeze frames of people from all walks of life, enabling him to engage in a sort of artistic people watching. Whether it be a sunny day casting shadows or the aftermath of a storm with reflections in a path, his works encapsulate moments frozen in time. Drawing inspiration from the Modern Masters, including Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso, Sickert, and Francis Bacon, Gower’s fascination with these great painters has pushed the boundaries of his creativity and refined his personal ‘Reflections’ style over the years. Richard Gower’s artistic prowess and ability to capture the essence of human experiences through his ‘Reflections’ series have solidified his position as an acclaimed artist.
