About this artwork
Richard Heys creates paintings with presence, paintings with atmosphere and countenance. He says - as light pours through the cosmos it is colourless, invisible, it is only when light touches a surface or streams through an atmosphere or refracts from particles or moisture that colour arises. That is of course all external to human consciousness where colour can attain to a kind of freedom from physical laws. We can imagine a brown bear with magenta…
polka dotted toe nails or indeed a flamenco dancer dressed in emerald green exhaling a cloud of blue smoke and so metamorphosing herself into an orange turtle. Freedom indeed, this freedom of the human imagination is both playful and profound.

« I make abstract paintings with presence. Working with the ethereal nature of color and the suggestive mobility of paint, I create inner spaces and outer presence. »
Richard Heys is an artist based in the United Kingdom whose works have been widely exhibited throughout England and Scotland. For him, painting reveals the spirit behind all life’s manifestations. Through his distinctive abstractions, Heys explores lessons of darkness and of light. His artistic pratice is comitted and driven by color and he most often creates with acrylics and oils on canvas, linen, or metal.
