L. Richard has created a world of sentient beauty, with a Rococo inspired palette of dusky pastels, with deep Romantic undercurrents running throughout, articulated through the landscape and subject matter presented. Idyllic and serene, border lining on escapist, Richard’s composition depicts a menagerie of exotic birds grouped together harmoniously perched upon lush foliage in the upper echelons of a forest canopy, each one unique, like the flowers that are blossoming rampant all around in profusion.
