Dick Evans was born in Roswell, New Mexico and received his BFA -1964 and MFA - 1966 from the University of Utah. He presently resides in Santa Fe.when I am painting. Then sometime later I might see something in the landscape that will make me exclaim, "Oh yes, I painted that last year in such and such a painting, something like this must have inspired that work." I seldom have a particular reaction that I am hoping for in a viewer. Rather, I would like for the viewer to experience an increased awareness or way of seeing, perhaps it could be called visual vocabulary, through seeing my work. Hopefully that increase will lead to heightened emotional and intellectual richness for the viewer. These goals apply to me as well as others, for I probably learn more through experiencing my paintings than does any other viewer. Dick Evans Selected works in 2006 are Black Grape - silicon carbide, paint, artex, polystyrene,can, cigarette butts. Hoodie - hydroponics, wax, aluminium, steel.Ultimately my paintings are simply explorations, interpretations and expressions of the world around me and within me.The entire painting evolves in that manner, in a series of reactions to the previous collection of actions. Throughout that process the visual and emotional elements that I have collected during my lifetime of observation, as well as, I suspect, elements that are in the genetic evolution of the human species, all play a part in determining each new step.
