Edward Richards

In my current role as an Artist Fellow at City & Guilds of London Art School, I am currently developing my practice in intaglio printmaking processes (hard
ground, soft ground, aquatint). My work is mostly figurative and often involves one or more transformations, where an initial composition is changed by another. I have written about drawings for publications such as Art UK, and I have designed and led workshops on drawing and performance in schools and arts institutions.

Collaborative partners include the Royal West of England Academy in Bristol , the Derek Jarman Lab, and Raindance Film Festival. In 2025 I carried out an artist residency in Barcelona (accomodation not provided), with ‘La Maldita Estampa’ studio. I developed a series of drawings and etchings inspired by the
works on paper of Francisco de Goya. I have recently had a solo exhibition ‘Edward Richards: Prints & Drawings’ of prints and drawings at the Hill Station Café, in London (Nov-Dec 2025).
