Artist Earls Rider's artwork displays the endless-horizon of his talents which include: Still Life, Portrait, Impressionism, and Perspective Work, to name just a few. His perspective work is interesting and gives the observer a hint of his technical drawing and drafting prowess, which are also noticeable in his other pieces that all capture height, form, light, shadow and angle with precision and grace. Earl Rider draws with the technical repertoire of one who holds highly-refined scientific drawing skills, while also, tantalizing the observer's other senses with his use of a wide-pallet of colors and tones. Mr. Rider excites the senses by varying between soft, hazy-pastels that speak to the sublime--to charcoals that lead us into whimsical thought--to Oil Paints with rich, loud use of colors and tones that make a bold-statement, sure to excite the neurons. Earl Rider's talents are as expansive as the various artistic mediums that he has mastered. Earl Rider's work reveals an artist who is introspective, contemplative all-while controlling the technical details in his pieces: A skill reminiscent of The Dutch Masters. Mr. Rider hails from Northern Michigan and his work has been displayed at some of the finest Museums and High-End Galleries in America.
