          Jean Richardson American, (b. 1940) 6 Wild Horses, 1987 monotype Pencil signed and dated lower right. Purchased in 1987 and professionally framed. From her website: Jean Richardson is an artist best known for her large, abstract paintings of horses. Using a palette of jewel tones and deep earthen hues, she splashes colors across a heavily textured background letting her image emerge. Almost hidden in an explosion of brush strokes, the hoses of Richardson's imagination plunge and leap across her canvas. An Oklahoma native, Richardson has had a lifelong interest in Western "myth".

          Published Jean Richardson "Onrush" Painting + Book

          Est: $3,600 - $4,900

          **This item is heavy/oversized and will require 3rd party shipping. Please inquire about shipping cost prior to bidding.** Jean Richardson (American, b. 1940). "Onrush" acrylic on canvas, 1990. Signed at lower right. Born in Oklahoma, Jean Richardson is known for impressively large, abstract equestrian paintings like this example. She magically transforms her canvases with mesmerizing color palettes and lush textures achieved via expressive brushwork and heavy impasto textures from which her trotting horses emerge. Richardson's oeuvre is remarkable, because she elegantly marries the notion of the Old West to her modernist aesthetic, breaking ground on a new frontier of Western Art. The horse provided Richardson with her "'great vocabulary,' an image that lent itself equally to abstraction and transcendant meaning." Size (painting): 40" L x 60" W (101.6 cm x 152.4 cm) Size (frame): 42.125" L x 62.125" W (107 cm x 157.8 cm) Artist's Statement: "The image of the horse is the perfect vehicle to express my true subjects; motion and energy. The horse as a real being is lovely in itself and I enjoy the power, the speed, and the physical beauty of the animal. My paintings, however, take this real image and make it a symbol. The horse as a metaphor for the human spirit; unbridled, striving, sometimes heroic, often restless, full of energy, floating above us, calling us to other realms. I propose that this is not a new theme. Every culture has had at the center of its stories about itself a mythical figure of the horse. From the incredible images on the walls of prehistoric caves, to the tales of Norse mythology, to the modern play 'Equus', the horse has been powerfully represented in the arts. In this tradition, but in the contemporary vocabulary of modern painting, I have tried to explore my subject and find therein my own emotional response."

          Jean Richardson Oklahoma, (b. 1940) Nocturne, '91 lithograph, artist proof Titled lower center, signed and dated lower right, A.P. lower left. Biography from Southwest Gallery Jean Richardson was born, but not raised, in Hollis, Oklahoma, in 1940. Due to the war, her parents made several moves that exposed her to different art museums and painting classes across the country before they settled in South Carolina. At an early age, Jean found the love of her life - painting - and subsequently had the advantages of an excellent high school art program and won youth talent competitions at Clemson University in 1956 and 1957. Richardson received her BFA in painting from Wesleyan College in 1962. During her college years, she came under the influence of two prominent teachers whose roots were in the "Robert Henri" branch of the New York school. First was Lamar Dodd, once a student himself of Henri, who inspired a generation of young artists at the University of Georgia. Second was Lucille Blanch, who, like her husband Arnold, was a New York painter and best friends with the Mexican artists Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo. These and other teachers encouraged Jean in her commitment not only to the vocation, but to the intellectual search for the ideas in which her work was to be grounded. Richardson returned to Oklahoma in the early seventies and has made her home in Oklahoma City since that time. She rediscovered her Western heritage in a series of "Oklahoma Album" paintings in which figures frozen in time, as if in old photographs, were superimposed on vaguely abstract backgrounds. She also spent one entire year painting abstract versions of Oklahoma's red dirt roads executed in acrylic on paper. By the late seventies, she had begun to use the images of Edward Curtis, the photographer, who had traveled through Western Oklahoma creating photographs of Native American tribes a century earlier. Richardson appropriated Curtis' haunting emotional interpretations of America's Great Plains. Feeling that the "west" is our own mythology, the artist created her series, "Plains Myth": heroic silhouettes of mounted figures against intense skies. As her work matured, Jean gained recognition as a regional artist. She was selected for the State Collection of Oklahoma Artists and was included in the Oklahoma Annual at the Philbrook Museum in Tulsa. She also began to show in galleries and has had numerous one-woman exhibitions. She has participated in the Art in the Embassies Program where the works of living American artists are placed in the United States Embassies around the world. Richardson has long been preoccupied with the line between abstraction and representation, and has explored both sides of that demarcation. Her work has been a lifetime of experiments with the destruction of an image and the finding of one from randomness. In her recent years, She has explored themes of energy and motion using the motif of the leaping horse or figure. The early influence of abstract expressionism is still apparent in the artist's painterly canvases. She is involved with brush stroke and gesture interposed in violent explosion of transparent colors and heavy textures laid with a palette knife, and then stained with splashy washes of acrylic.
