The talented artist Richard
Heale had a colourful background started at
the age of 14 riding motorcycles across fields.
He got caught up in the Mods and Rocker battles
at Southend on Sea and later became a Hippy
in an Afghan coat. Still riding a motorcycle,
people said he looked like Father Christmas.
After marrying a girl from Brighton he spent
7 years living in Australia earning a living
from painting local landscapes before returning
to England to become a motorcycle courier. He
combined his love of motorcycling and painting
to become a professional artist in 1993, travelling
extensively across Europe and the UK to shows
and race meetings. His style is different from
the regular mainstream, using Acrylics and soft
pastels.
