Genre
Busts
A great tradition amongst Classical cultures, the bust is a way of celebrating the individuality of a subject by focusing on the distinctive set of the head and the character expressed by the facial features. Richard MacDonald has created busts of great dancers, known and unknown, and figures from all walks of life, men and women, young and old, and in the form of the bust we see his keen appreciation for the unique qualities of his subjects.

The Artist's Touch
Richard MacDonald’s method of working by directly observing a living model is becoming increasingly rare amongst artists of our time. Developing the sensitivity and facility to watch a person in motion and capture anatomy, movement, mood, and personality in clay is an extraordinarily complex and demanding task, yet the quality of the work speaks to the vitality, energy, and power made possible by this experience.
