Richard Nash – sculptures

   Richard is a native of the Northwest. He has resided in Oak Harbor, Washington, for the last 38 years with the majority of that spent embracing a career as a secondary art teacher. He also taught intaglio printmaking at the local community college for many years.

Richard earned his MFA in painting and printmaking from Washington State University and studied art on a student exchange scholarship at Nihon University in Japan for a year. He was granted a one-year sabbatical to study art and architecture in Europe, Russia, and Israel including a month immersing myself in New York City’s art-rich culture.
