John Robertson

Fine Contemporary and Period Paintings Landscapes by Richard Thorn. British (Born 1952) Richard Thorn grew up living close to the sea and amid the beautiful Devon countryside.

As a result the sea, coastal and rural landscape have been an ongoing inspiration for his subject matter. Although he formally studied art at the Newton Abbot School of Art, he is a naturally gifted artist and prefers to create paintings from ‘feeling’ rather than an academic standpoint.

Early influences include the American artists Winslow Homer, Andrew Wyeth, Edward Hopper and Philip Jameson.
