"Kirk Richards has achieved a degree of mastery and versatility rarely seen among the Classical Realists."

Richard Lack

“The strength of Kirk RIchards’ art lies in his ability to see and capture the breadth and beauty of nature viewed as an ensemble, rather than as an agglomeration of separately seen and rendered pieces.  Allied with this exceptional quality are a refined aesthetic sensibility, an outstanding ability to render observed color values and great technical skill. These qualities make Richards’ work some of the finest art being created today."

Stephen Gjertson

"Kirk Richards creates exquisitely rendered paintings in the classical realist style he has made his own."
