Dobson, Richard
Richard works in oils and pastels on a variety of subjects; some personal work, others as customer commissions. The ideas behind his recent work have been prompted by cubist themes. He uses his paintings to draw attention to the way we look at things and the process of observation.
"I want the paint in my pictures to be playful on the surfaces, acting as paint in itself, aswell as being able to discuss ideas and subjects"
My Studio is based in Gateshead, drop me a quick email to arrange a visit.
