Richard Bawden, Two Mackerel

Linocut, 46cm x 68cm, 18" x 27"

Richard Bawden RWS RE is a painter, printmaker and designer working predominantly in lino, etching and watercolour. He studied painting, printmaking and graphic design at Chelsea, St Martin's and the Royal College of Art. His paintings are drawn from life and often depict scenes of domesticity: his house, sofas, chairs, windows, cats, his garden and its birds. He is attracted by atmosphere, oddity, pattern and the austere. Focussing on these, he draws the viewer into his delightful universe. He has work in Royal, public and private collections, and has taught drawing and printmaking at several London and provincial art schools.
