David Richard

David Richard is an author, painter, poet, photographer and songwriter. He credits his mentor, John Diamond, M.D., for helping to nurture and inspire his creativity. He practices Action Meditation, by example, as much as possible in his creative endeavors. 

What I create only passes through me, whether I admit it or not. The more I surrender to the seed of conception and the life it brings forth in me, the easier and more successful the birth.

I love the spontaneous and free, the decayed and transient, the Eternal and Beautiful. I love color but find grounding in simple black and white. I love the small bits of Nature – here, there, everywhere!

David has exhibited paintings and photographs in IL, CT, NY and PA.
