1944-
RICHARD BURNSIDE
Richard is unavailable by telephone and he lives in his own world
of ancient kings,white wolves and tiger cats. Bug and snake images
make regualar appearances in his paintings, and are sometimes embellished
with bits of pine cones and twigs. He also paints on gourds and over existing paintings, occasionally.
Richard lives day to day in a small town in South Carolina. We think
he's a Viet Nam Vet...but his frequent bouts with addictions of all
sorts keep him from being in a frame of mind to discuss his past.
He continues to paint on a pretty regular basis, and his pallette
changes from paint can to paint can. He will only use oil based enamels
and epoxies...and as a result, his works will endure forever.
Strikingly bright and primitive, his works are a great addition to
any outsider art collection. This "House of Blues" artist is a unique and distinctive.
