Richard W. Padilla has been drawing all his life. His father was an artist, and having inherited that sensibility, art has always been his natural form of expression. While the nature of the artworks have changed overtime, Richard’s sincerity to try to relate his feelings has remained throughout. The environment around him has had an influence, but it does not dictate any particular genre or style. It is his intuition that leads to each new work, and that comes from ever changing sources.
