Richard Horne



.

-Whilst completing some of my visual research on Pinterest, I came across some images of screen-prints by Richard Horne and decided to do some more research into him as an artist, because I really loved to bold, striking colours his designs contain. I had spotted his work at an exhibition earlier in the year, at the forum, Norwich where he was involved in the print exhibition from 24th feb - 1st march.

.
Richard Horne is a graphic designer, who creates a variety of designs for different uses, including books, posters and greetings cards. based in East Anglia, Richard Horne has many connections to Norwich , its a wonder I hadn't heard of him earlier!!
