Ric Williams Art



Hey, Richard Lance Williams is an artist, aka Ric Williams. There are hundreds of hits on "richard williams" out on bing and google, some of them poets too. His still life photos, digital composite, drawings and paintings, like his poetry seems to include influences from a myriad of sources; all unconventional, fresh, unique to him--though some of the still lifes do remind me a bit of Trisha Orr's paintings, that I did a perspective on this month; the wife of poet Gregory Orr. The art of Ric Williams, like Picasso, seems deceptively simple. One thinks, "hell, I could do that." But of course, we didn't, and he did. Enjoy it:
