Welcome! This site documents and explains, insofar as possible, my relief art.

I invite you to follow my artistic progress on Facebook at "Richard Perry Artist"

We all conceive pictures to be illusions of real objects. 

I conceive of real objects as illusions in and of themselves.  I work primarily in relief and sculpture.

Here is a 9 minute video to start you off...

        Photos of my reliefs cannot convey their essence, as relief is directed at the human eye, not the camera, which cannot convey 3 dimensional illusions. 

         You will need to see intaglio relief in person since what you will experience depends on your visual acuity and life experience.

        I invite you to see my work in various exhibitions, or at my gallery/studio 1772 Main Street, Brewster, MA, by appointment: call 774-212-0657.   I am always looking for new venues to show my work.

Given the concept of reality as illusion, I am re-exploring art and reality by perceptual analysis.  This is taken up in the Perception section.
