About the Artist

Richard Hawkins is an American painter whose vibrant abstract works engage with both geometric rigor and expressive spontaneity. His distinctive canvases often feature intricate grid-like structures, layered with bold colors and dynamic brushstrokes. Hawkins's practice draws inspiration from diverse sources, including digital aesthetics, textile patterns, and the history of abstraction, creating compositions that are at once formally precise and visually exuberant. His art invites viewers into an optical play of color, form, and illusion, exploring the complexities of perception and the interplay between order and chaos within the abstract realm, often with a subtle humor and intellectual curiosity.
