White Maples

A towering presence at nearly eight feet, White Maples commands a room through sheer scale and quiet grandeur, its acrylic finish lending the work a luminous, glass-like depth that shifts with the light. John Richard has rendered the composition in fabric and silk, materials that introduce an unexpected softness of texture against the piece's architectural proportions. The result is something that reads equally as fine art and interior object — a work that asks to be placed with intention, not simply hung.
