About Keith Richens RSMA

Profile

Artist details

Artist's Statement

Having been inspired by the Naturalist movement in 19th Century European art, Keith Ricehens tries to create striking images sometimes with a narrative sub-text which hopefully fascinate and remain with the viewer.

Method of Working

Keith paints mainly in oil or watercolour, preferring to work in a studio using reference photographs he has taken along with notes and sketches made on location. Sometimes using video to capture an atmosphere or a movement which can be interpreted and incorporated into my paintings. Keith also uses a computer as an aid to compositional, colour and tonal decisions.

Commissions

Commissions

Approach to Commissions: 

Keith is open to take commissions of seascapes, landscapes and portraits. As a result of his background in illustration, Keith is accustomed to working with demanding briefs, and is happy to replicate earlier works. The artist typically completes works in the studio, refering to sketches, photographs and notes produced on location. Typically at least one week is required to complete a commission, but if multiple sittings or greater complexity is required this period might be longer.
