Richard Eveleigh/ Winter Issue

UK based artist, Richard Eveleigh, has exhibited work across the United Kingdom, Europe and South America. He held his first solo exhibition in Salisbury at the Oxfam Art Gallery and has supported many charities through the sale of his work. In London he has shown at the Truman Brewery, The Signal Gallery and at South Kensington as part of "Art Below". Richard regularly exhibits work at Ad Lib Gallery in Wimbledon Village.Shortly after graduating from the University of Portsmouth in 2011, Richard suffered a series of brain haemorrhages. His work is heavily influenced by this experience and his exploration of "duality" encapsulates this. While a traumatic and disruptive experience it is also a driving and motivating force behind his art.Richard typically uses picturesque scenes in his work including cityscapes, seascapes and, the rural idyll of the English countryside. Inspired by Futurism, he uses unusual vantage points to create a feel of movement. This is contrasted with sensitive colours of restful and organic moonlit skies.
