Richard Jordan
A graduate of the Ringling School of Art and Design, Richard had a long career as a page designer and illustrator for the Kalamazoo Gazette.
“All of my landscapes are painted on location, directly from nature. It can be a very satisfying yet humbling experience.
I paint as honestly as I can without hidden meanings or art babble. I feel it’s an honor to set up my easel under God’s sky and work at something so rare and beautiful as the act of painting.”
In 2008, with the help of family and fellow artists, Richard founded the Plein Air Artists of West Michigan.
Richard's work is represented by the Button Petter Gallery of Saugatuck Michigan.
