Richard's teenage watercolours of early morning skies are delicate studies and he notes in his Memoir his exceptional decision to paint a lurid sunset when he was still a teenager. This was condemned by his ‘artist' friends. In the 1960s however he experimented with colour in a completely new way, and wild sunrise and sunset colours were unleashed.
