Iain

Richardson

Observational drawing and painting are central to my work. I use drawing, painting, printmaking and sculpture to focus on people and their relationships within spaces, through portraiture and spatial studies. I explore the spaces between artist and subject, the spaces within paintings, and the spaces between viewers, objects and artworks in museums and galleries.

Disciplines: Painting

Location: Glasgow

Materials: Lino Print, Monoprint, Oil, Paper, Pen & Ink, Pencil, Relief Print, Watercolour
