| Ilana Richardson Paintings | |
| Ilana Richardson is an internationally-renowned artist, based in London. Her inspiration comes from her love of travel, choosing countries that let her passion for light and colour be expressed to the full. She is at her best, depicting the interplay of light and shadows and favours subjects which contrast lush vegetation with the whitewashed walls of Mediterranean architecture or the vibrant colours of Mexican houses. Ilana’s extraordinary ability to re-create the warmth and colour of the places she travels to makes her work irresistible to collectors. Onlookers can feel the heat and are drawn into the light and warmth. Ilana has painted in Greece, Italy, Sicily, Spain, France, Morocco, Egypt, Mexico, Brazil, Malaysia, Singapore, USA, Croatia and Israel. She enjoys an international reputation, with exhibitions in England, France, Germany, the USA, Canada and Japan. Her paintings and prints attract a huge following all over the world.. | |
