A B O U T
Michael Douglas Richards is an English artist specializing in mixed media abstract figure and portrait paintings. Originally from Cumbria, Michael has loved art from a young age and began drawing as soon as he was able to hold a pencil. He got his start painting commissioned children’s portraits, but his passion lies in more abstract work.
A largely self-taught artist, Michael decided to travel around the world to Canada, Asia, America and Africa to look for inspiration. Much of his work is drawn from his experiences abroad. Michael’s passion for travel eventually brought him to South Africa where he volunteered for a Great White Shark cage diving company. He currently resides in New Orleans.
