Class and workshop instructor Richard Abraham studied painting and design in college, He made his living as a designer for 14 years. First in broadcast television design at the CBS affiliate in Denver, then in 1990 at an animation studio in Madison, Wisconsin, producing work clients such as PBS and The Learning Channel. In 1998 Richard made the decision to paint full time, and moved to Minneapolis to study classical oil painting techniques.

 

Richard studied the figure from life at The Ateliers in Minneapolis for 2 years and then to The Hurinenko & Paquet Studio. He studied with Jeff Hurinenko's portrait painting and was introduced to Flemish painting techniques and with Joe Paquet in outdoor landscape and composition. He says, "The first time I set up a French easel outside and painted with the sun on my face, I was hooked, (I had spent too many years in front of a computer monitor on beautiful days)."  For the past six years Richard has concentrated on learning to paint plein air, and working these paintings into larger studio paintings.
