ABOUT THE ARTIST
Richard Hugh Blackford
is one of the leading Jamaican impressionist painters working today. Largely
self taught, he is widely known for his highly individual oil pieces inspired
by his years living on the wonderful Caribbean island of Jamaica. His paintings
come from a place that is not only very familiar to him, but representative of
the type of diversity that only a place such as Jamaica has to offer. He
visits the island on a regular basis – to constantly renew himself and to draw
from this reservoir generous helpings of inspiration for his canvasses.
In his work he always prefers to concentrate on a specific set of topics
featuring the people and culture of the island in all its brilliance. Richard’s
aim with his work is to convey the spirit of the Jamaican people and the magic
of its environment.
After a number of years working in the cut-and-thrust of the Jamaican business
environment, Richard took the decision to concentrate solely on his painting
and hit the Jamaican Art scene with a solo exhibition of Cricket Paintings in
2005. Since then Richard has had some 20 solo exhibitions in Jamaica, Antigua,
Barbados, the United Kingdom and in several states here in the USA. Not
surprisingly, his work has been bought by collectors and buyers worldwide – Canada,
the U.K., United States of America, The Cayman Islands, Antigua, Barbados as
well as by a large and loyal following back in Jamaica.
