About

Richard Gardner's roots are grounded in the beauty industry. For decades as a hairdresser, make up artist, and photographer, he has documented the essence of the perceived reality of beauty given women as zeitgeist. His hand colored images have been used as a part of the course curriculum at the International Center of Photography. His palette still retains the muted essence evoked from his past. His award winning images are sought by collectors and are published in fashion, beauty, and art magazines worldwide.
