Artist Russell Richards featured in Jan - Feb 2007 Virginia Living

There is an excellent profile piece about Russell U. Richards, authored by Laura Parsons, in the current issue (Jan-Feb 2007) of Virginia Living magazine, available at newsstands now!

In recent months Richards' art has undergone a major change in direction, with a new focus on larger, original (that is, one-of-a-kind) paintings instead of prints. A few of his new paintings, and a cool T-shirt design that was donated to the nonprofit Computers 4 Kids, can be seen at Richard's website.

To watch a brief video of Richards and poet Helena Wetsel discussing their collaborative artwork "Me and You at the Zoo" from last summer's "Love Letter Invitational" group show at Second Street Gallery visit the ABOUT page.
