Richard Yeager

Formerly an art director, graphic designer, photographer, and head of his own advertising agency, Richard Yeager now devotes all of his energies to painting and pictorial photography. He is equally at home with brush or camera, and sees each merely as tools for creative expression. His paintings are traditional or impressionistic in approach, whether landscape or figurative, with an emphasis on capturing the quality of light and essence of the subject. They exhibit a strong underlying sense of composition and superb draftsmanship. On his work, Yeager says, 'There is little as stimulating painting landscapes, as setting up the easel and painting on the spot. The nuances of color, light and shadow are more vivid, and the whole atmosphere enhances the process of painting.'
