Richard Adams

We are delighted to be holding a solo exhibition by celebrated and collectable artist Richard Adams.

Richard's sense of humour is what first makes you smile. His humour and fertile imagination seem to know no bounds. He creates idylls and then adds quirky people that often float above the ground and seldom stand upright.  His is a whimsical world of earthenware jugs full of cider, tractor rides, wild unabandoned partying and handstand competitions.  

He is a master of imagination, a champion of originality and a pastel artist of the highest calibre.  He has an extraordinary ability to connect with the viewer and his saucy sense of humour never fails to provoke that broad smile.

Richard Adams studied illustration at Leicester Polytechnic where he received a BA Hon degree. Having been born in Hampshire his family later moved to the stunning South Cotswold countryside of Wiltshire, a landscape that has had a strong and lasting influence on his work. Following his graduation Adams first moved to London where for many years he produced images for clients such as BP and the Radio Times and since then settled in East Sussex.
