Richard Joseph Reynolds

Richard Reynolds was born in Conway, Arkansas and has lived in Western Washington area since 1996. He likes to make comics, paintings, illustrations, animation and all types of drawings.  His work has been published on album covers, event posters, in the magazines Paraphilia, Sensitive Skin and OK | KULT.  His influences include underground comics, cheap paperback novels, dadaism, outsider art, Renaissance printmaking and early cinema.  “Beauty and ugliness are conjoined twins of human emotion containing elements of surprise and fascination. I consider one of my works to be a success if it produces a balance of mystification and enlightenment in the viewer.”
