About the Item

Part of Richard Heeps 'Dream in Colour' Series, this picture has the a vibe of a Southern California American road trip, the colours are so seductive, the palm trees create a desert oasis amongst mid 20th Century architecture. The light is so clear, which is unusual in a desert and is due to a recent rainfall. The angle of the photograph gives it a cool faded Americana cinematic feel. This artwork is a limited edition of 25, gloss photographic print. Accompanied by a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity. Free Shipping. The print is fragile and we recommend it is handled by a professional framer on receiving. We can provide framing on request (black or white box (shadow) frame) which including delivery is an additional £375/ $500. This artwork can be purchased in bespoke sizes, just get in touch. Be sure to look at his other artworks listed on 1stDibs as they are great paired for interior design projects. Richard Heeps’ seductive, highly saturated colours and sophisticated pictorial structures demonstrate a true love and empathy for his subject matter – be it cool, descriptive interiors, still life, portrait or landscape. His distinctive style pushes the limits of lens-based photography without the need for digital manipulation. He runs his own darkrooms in Cambridge (UK) where he hand prints his colour photography. His work has been exhibited in Museums and Public Galleries around England, and he has participated in Art Fairs around the world, and his work is now part of many international collections.
