Richard Hanson Watercolors
 
Artist Statement
My current work and the images I am presenting,  I refer to as the Street Series.
 
In the Street Series I have attempted to blend a sense of reality with everday societal issues.  Most of my work seems to gravitate towards life on the street.  A life filled with texture and grit.  An existence filled with dampness, cold, grime and shadows.  I have conjured up scenes of homelessness, hopelessness, desperation, violence frustration and isolation.  These  are things I see on the fringes of society.  A moment in time, my perception, a slice of life.  It is my hope to generate a cerebral response in the observer.  Perhaps I can create a moment of fear, loathing, introspection, query or even empathy.
