Nichols sees that Taos and his creativity are intertwined. A thread that is woven in the tapestry that makes his artistic life what it is. It’s living in an unknown territory not sure of the final chapter but enjoying the journey. A journey path that he is still partaking, from subject matters of: landscape, figurative works and still life. Acutely aware of the delicate hues created by light, Richard strives to render, in his words "a visual poem" with each stroke. Whether brushed in oil, a textured charcoal to a splashing stroke of watercolor he tries capture not of the knowing but of the feeling. Allowing that unknown creative spirit to be the guide of his works from that of a Sunflower petal of a Still Life, Bustling street of the a City, to the Plein Aire light that the Sangre De Cristo’s enchant with.
