Contemporary Motivation
As Richard Johnston speaks I realize that he has come across a rare talent of not only immense and drastic amounts of creativity but also the ability to capture and enhance an area like no other artist I have taken interest in.

A closer look, however, would have unveiled a playful message that not all majestic figurines have to look the same.
