Richard Meyer: ‘Groundworks II' Mainly recent landscape paintings in impastoed oil, Richard's paintings have been described as “Vibrant Expressionist paintings from the margins of an eternal triangle where Civilisation meets Nature – meets Man – meets Woman.”
A scientist by training with a PhD in avian ecology, Richard spent many years working in wildlife conservation, and has written 12 books, illustrating many with line drawings. In mid-life he came to realise that his early love of Fine Art, especially painting, was where he should be studying nature and man's behavioural response. Apart from a little freelance work, Richard paints full time and runs life drawing classes.

In London, Richard is represented by Celia Purcell Contemporary, where there is a permanent show of work. He has exhibited in London and many places in the West Country for some 30 years, in solo and group exhibitions.
