David Richardson
R3 No.3

About the Item

David Richardson R3 No.3 28 x 25 in Acrylic Paint Following a tour in Iraq, Richardson was posted to Seoul Korea for two years. There, he saw how the Koreans used large, brightly colored neon signs to mark their churches at night. Because Seoul is a city surrounded by mountains, the neon crosses topping the churches in the hills are a prominent part of the nighttime landscape; the Resurrection Series draws on this. David Richardson’s paintings reinforce myth as the universal blueprint we all live by. His work is a visual journal seen through the lens of Jungian archetypes, mythology, and symbols. Love, combat, religion, uncertainty, celebrity, and confusion at cultural fault lines inform Richardson’s work. Taught by his mother and brother, both artists, his medium ranges from oil and acrylic on canvas, to charcoal on paper, to buckshot applied to corrugated tin or plywood with a .12-gauge shotgun. From portraiture to abstraction, he reaches across art forms to express the pressure of the past and the vacuum of the future that myth captures. In work inspired by Homer, symbols garnered from his travels, and the emerging impact of Artificial Intelligence on mankind, Richardson claws at the unyielding and necessary grip myth still holds on a globalized and capitalized world.

Gold Flowers, Impressionism, Figurative, Spring, Blossoms, Tropical
Located in Sungai Petani, Kedah
I capture the enchanting essence of spring's golden hour, filled with blossoms, vitality, and energy. By wielding brushes and blending bronze dips into rich black fluids, I've crafted a tropical scene set against a natural ecru background. The ecru canvas adds a warm, foundational element, allowing the painting's timeless beauty to shine in any environment. This artwork, titled "Golden Hour IX" and created in 2021, features metallique acrylic paint that gives it a gentle luster, enhancing its overall visual charm. Golden Hour IX (2021) is signed on the back and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, affirming its provenance and value. © 2019-2024 Fuen Chin...
