He has incredible sense of nature and their importance of respect in their natural habitat. He has also traveled throughout the USA and Europe and seen natural vistas, architecture, designs and art in museums and galleries of all kinds. His approach toward simplicity and harmony with nature are key to his creative design!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Richard is also an accomplished pianist and singer and career musician! He studied Art in college while studying music and became a piano and vocal teacher. He has been teacher of music for about 30 years helping students of all ages learn the art of music!
