THE PHOENIX

There are two painters that I love, Dali and Richard Mettler. And lucky for me Richard is an Irish based painter so he was naturally on the list.

 

 

Artists Statement

Richard Mettler is a New York City artist who has resided in Ireland for 11 years. Richard, an abstract expressionist, studied under the expert guidance
of respected New York artists Robert Beauchamp and Stephen Greene at the Art
Students League. He took a side trip into surrealism for 10 years after
studying with Arnold Mesches at New York University. Mettler’s distinctive
style has flowing liquids merging on the canvas with a the white background
showing as part of the composition, a style influenced by his most dominant
influence, Paul Jenkins.

Richards work can be bought directly from him by contacting him through his email address.

====================================================

When looking for my 7 pieces I came up with Richards work immediately.

The strong vivid colours could never be replicated in a photo or even on the web.

He kindly came to my home and let me take this picture. I am no expert but I couldn’t do it justice. And I hope you realise that there were many photos taken to get you this.

Hopefully in the future I will be featuring more of his work, if you are interested in seeing more, please email Richard personally.

Richard will soon have his blog up and running and I will have a link to his work. Watch under the Irish Links for Richards name and you can then view more of his work. An on-line shop will then be put in place to buy directly through the blog!
