Welcome to Coastcards NZ

Richard is an artist working from his studio on the Northland coast of Aotearoa New Zealand. This recent series draws inspiration from a unique and dynamic landscape sometimes captured in the fluid vibrancy of watercolour painting or created in great detail in airbrushed works.

Watercolour paintings that capture the magic of living on the edge

Mastering watercolour painting requires particular knowledge and skills. One must learn to manipulate layers of transparent pigments as they bleed and move in areas across the surface of the paper. This fluid spontaneity connects seamlessly to the challenges of capturing light and movement across the ocean and ever changing coastline.
