Richard Harrington, a Rhode Island native, earned a B.S. degree in Industrial Arts Education and an M.Ed in Special Education from Rhode Island College. After serving as teacher, administrator and grant writer/consultant, he returned to his interest of art in the late seventies. Richard is now painting full time. A believer in life-long learning, he continues to participate in numerous drawing and painting classes, including courses at the Rhode Island School of Design and workshops throughout New England.
Richard is a master of monotype, painting deep-toned images of sea and shore. He creates his images in reverse, like a mirror image, putting layers of paint on a plate. The plate is then pressed into moist paper and run through a press to create the final monotype. Using strong composition and saturated color, Richard paints in a realistic, representational manner to capture the unique and quiet beauty around him.
