Richard Hall Art

Richard Hall (Born in 1952) was born in Bradford, Yorkshire. He painted all of his life creating outstanding works of art in a wide variety of styles. He studied at both the Kingston-upon-Hull College of Art and the Sheffield College of Art, and received his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting in 1976. He later attended Sussex University for his Post-Graduate teaching certificate which he obtained in 1978. After his graduation, he moved to the Southwest United States where he pursued painting full-time. His styles ranged from geometric to classical to romantic depending on the needs of his clients. Hall worked for many years in the Fine Art Publishing business, and has created large bodies of works for clients. He was renowned for his ability to foresee trends in the world of design and move straight ahead of them. In 2006 everything changed instantly. At age 53 he suffered a heart attack that came as a surprise. Hall and his wife made the decision that it was time for him to pursue his dream of using traditional painting style to create a body of work that was truly his own. Because of his several years of painting experience, he was able to develop his signature look. Whether an intimate still life or a large scale landscape, his paintings are recognizable instantly. Even the framed Richard Hall art can be easily identified among the works of other artists. Hall was a member of the International Guild of Realism, the American Society of Traditional Artists, and Oil Painters of America.
