Style is one of the main factors in establishing a solid foundation for any artist. The style of Richard Myer is easily recognized as he manages to encompass, on any canvas, simplicity, subject interest and a profound use of color. His rural scenes do nothing more than explain his simple and abiding love for the country. He shows the viewer what is really there--without using trick color technique or abstract value--to balance the canvas.
