HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE. – Howdy
The world as seen through his mind’s eye…
Growing up along the Atlantic seaboard, Richard developed a love for the ocean and all things aquatic. This interest in marine environment and marine life inspired him to pursue an undergraduate degree in biology while at the same time pursuing his other passion, art. The natural culmination of these two distinct passions was receiving his Master of Arts degree in Biomedical Communications from the prestigious University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. Through his imagination and incredible talent, Richard blended his two passions into a unique style that combined marine biology with traditional art.
Here are some of Richard’s newest paintings:
Richard Howdy, CMI
Certified Medical Illustrator
He received a BS in Biology and a BA in Fine Art from Stonehill College in Massachusetts. He received an MA in Biomedical Communications from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas after completing his thesis project entitled ‘Animated Lessons on the Neurology of Eye Movements and Pupillary Disorders’. Upon completion of this program, Richard was asked to join the faculty of the Biomedical Communications department where he served as instructor, teaching beginning and advanced 3D medical animation. He also helped with drawing skills, business management, and surgical illustration classes. Richard is also an active member of the Association of Medical Illustrators (AMI) and is Board Certified (CMI). Richard has several years of medical-legal experience when he worked at the law offices of Frank L Branson, the attorney known as “the king of demonstrative evidence”
“Medical Illustration can sometimes be very exact and structured and formulaic. When I paint or illustrate non-medical subjects, I am free to express myself in any way I want. I can experiment with different media and color and style.”
Throughout the years, Richard has further developed his style to include a variety of subjects in his work such as everyday scenes to unique combinations of marine life and the abstract. The result is cohesive and exceptional works of art that utilize vibrant colors and imaginative effects. Richard tends to incorporate anything scientific, biological, or medical into his artwork. His primary interests lie in the areas of parasitic life cycles, medical concepts, and anything related to marine biology. Richard, a new Dallas talent, is available for comissioned artwork that can be customised to fit your space, size, theme, and color scheme.

Richard recently illustrated a children's book called "Ready or Not, Here I Come", written and self-published by Hannah Keator.
