His aim is to start with a representational subject and then stray playfully into abstraction. Sometimes he stays close to home. At other times he veers off into far away places (both physically and artistically).<\/p>\n<p>In addition to painting, Rich is a graphic designer, volunteer English teacher, and adventure cyclist. He graduated with a B.A. in Studio Fine Art from the University of Waterloo. He is usually based in Squamish, BC, Canada, but needs to break out occasionally to find inspiration and sunshine in remote corners of the world.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-772\" src=\"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Rich-Hektor-Profile.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the taller on Lanzarote. <i>Photo \u00a9 Yves Drieghe, Hektor<\/i><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-735\" src=\"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Rich-FlowerPotsPainting-Valparaiso.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Obsessing on flower pots in Mojacar.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-734\" src=\"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Rich-Granada-Owl.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2280\" height=\"2304\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Luvin&#8217; El Ni\u00f1o de Las Pinturas in Granada.<\/td>\n<td width=\"3%\"><\/td>\n<td width=\"37%\">\n<h4>Shows<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Delany\u2019s Coffee House<\/strong><br \/>\nDundarave, West Vancouver, BC<br \/>\nJan 25 to Mar 12, 2021<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fuel + Forest<\/strong><br \/>\nSquamish, BC<br \/>\nNov 30, 2018 to Feb 10, 2019<\/p>\n<p><strong>Galileo Coffee Company<\/strong><br \/>\nBritannia Beach, BC<br \/>\nMar 7 to Apr 18, 2016<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/squamishlibrary.ca\/foyer-gallery\/\"><strong>Foyer Gallery<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nSquamish, BC<br \/>\nFeb 3 to Mar 2, 2015<\/p>\n<p><strong>Galileo Coffee Company<\/strong><br \/>\nBritannia Beach, BC<br \/>\nJan 20 to Mar 1 2015<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/squamishlibrary.ca\/foyer-gallery\/\"><strong>Foyer Gallery<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nSquamish BC, Feb 2015<br \/>\n(group show)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Squamish Adventure Centre<\/strong><br \/>\nSquamish, BC, Apr, 2014<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 24px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ferrybuildinggallery.ca\"><strong>Ferry Building Gallery<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nWest Vancouver, BC, Feb 2014<\/p>\n<h4>Residencies<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hektor.es\"><strong>Hektor<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nLos Valles, Lanzarote, Spain<br \/>\nNov 5 to Dec 3, 2023<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casa-tagumerche.com\"><strong>Casa Tagumerche<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nAl\u00f3jera, La Gomera, Spain<br \/>\nNov 4 to Nov 25, 2022<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.airguiniguada.org\"><strong>AiR Guiniguada<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nSanta Brigida, Gran Canaria, Spain<br \/>\nNov 4 to Nov 26, 2021<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fundacionvalparaiso.com\/es\/inicio-valparaiso\/\"><strong>Fundacion Valparaiso<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nMojacar, Andalucia, Spain<br \/>\nNov 4 to Nov 17, 2019<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casa-tagumerche.com\"><strong>Casa Tagumerche<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nAl\u00f3jera, La Gomera, Spain<br \/>\nApr 17 to Apr 27, 2019<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/137"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=137"}],"version-history":[{"count":69,"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/137\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":788,"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/137\/revisions\/788"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/r2secure.com\/richrawling-wp2\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
