Richard Ross is a self-taught artist from Irving, Texas. His formative years were spent concentrating on music, eventually co-founding the Denton based (now-defunct) band Brutal Juice. Richard’s formal education includes a degree in History from the University of Dallas.
As a visual artist, Ross experiments with all types of media, from pencils, acrylics and oils to found collage materials. His hope is to communicate his search for beauty and glimpses of the Platonic Forms into a new mythology. It seems he is always searching for new icons by sifting through old beliefs and a disposable contemporary society. With an inventory of works well into the hundreds, this show will be something to see first hand.
