Richard Allen is an artist based in Heage, Derbyshire, who paints primarily with watercolour and acrylics. The inspiration for his paintings comes from the Derbyshire countryside, trees, rocks, and the sea. Richard enjoys the vibrant colours and textures that acrylics offer, whether he is painting a specific place or creating more abstract representational pieces. His watercolours are typically small and have a loose style. Richard aims to capture an atmospheric or moody essence rather than a true representation of a location.
