Has anyone heard of an artist who signs his art work F Richardson?

Update:

The F Richardson I found who I think it is (but I thought someone who knew art would know more) was from London. He came to the US once and painted landscapes in watercolour while on a trip to the Adirondacks. The painting I have looks similar to his paintings I have seen on the internet. His full name was Frederic Stuart Richardson and the trip was thought to be made in around 1881. The painting was my great grandmother's. His grandson seems to be from the Boston area which is were I got the info from of a website. His name is David H S Richardson. Does anyone know more or know someone that would? Thanks.

    Frederick Stuart Richardson was born in Clifton, Bristol, on the 9th December, 1855. He was the second son of the Reverend John Richardson who was Rector of Sandy in Bedfordshire, from 1858 to 1930. He was educated at Repton School and subsequently commenced training as a civil engineer at Crystal Palace in London. In 1877, he inherited a legacy that provided him with an annual income, which allowed him to consider leaving his embryonic career as an engineer and to study art. His family, being very concerned about this step, asked a family friend, the painter, Sir Samuel Luke Fildes R.A., to give an opinion of his talents and prospects. Following a positive response, Richardson travelled to Paris to study painting under Carolus Duran. On his return to England, he set up a base at his father`s rectory in Sandy. He used some of the outbuildings as a study, and remained there until his father`s death in 1913. From here he travelled extensively, painting landscapes and coastal scenes in Scotland, Ireland, Italy, Holland, France and Cornwall. Also throughout his working life Richardson made annual visits to Staithes in Yorkshire, where his great-grandfather had been a ship`s chandler. There he became an active member of the Staithes Group, an important artist colony in the north, participating in the exhibitions of the Staithes Art Club, and annual exhibitions of the Yorkshire Union of Artists. At the turn of the century, his elder brother inherited a property at Aislaby and, as local vicar, was able to provide him with accommodation. He met his wife whilst on a painting trip in Cornwall and their honeymoon, in 1912, was spent in Holland. In 1917, he moved with his family to Bristol and 1919 was elected an Artist Member of the Bristol Savages, becoming President in 1923. He exhibited prolifically at all the major venues including Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, the Royal Society of Bristol Artists, the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours, the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolours, the Royal Hibernian Academy, the Royal West of England Academy, and the Royal Academy London. One of his watercolours is in the permanent collections of the Harris Museum and Art Gallery, Preston. He was elected a member of the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolours in 1893, a member of the Institute of Painters in Watercolour in 1897, a member of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters in 1901, and the Royal West of England Academy in 1920. He died on the 22nd April, 1934, at the age of seventy-eight. (R.S.B.)

    i'm no longer able to hold myself to observe the video, yet anybody hurting animals, somewhat canines, is in basic terms disgusting Edit; I did some investigating to discover the petition and sign it; curiously the entire element replaced right into a hoax. The canines is alive and entirely wholesome. The artist accountable wanted to spotlight how the inhabitants are in touch over one canines getting used as a bite of artwork, yet dont care with regard to the masses of canines on the streets in south u.s..

    i think you would find here http://onlinedogtraining.enle.info/?qfr3 an amazing help! i am currently in the throes of training my new puppy, a german shepherd/alaskan malamute cross who is still just a baby..but i've grown up with dogs...had 2 border collies when i was just a kid.. my sister has a toy poodle, my brother has a lab, and my parents have a toy poodle and a yorkshire terrier/pomeranian cross and we lost a lab last august...

    i live with my parents while i'm in school and my mom trained the dogs with Cesar's techniques.. they really do work! and that is what i'm training little Justice with... his techniques i have found more effective than a water spray bottle, rolled up newspaper, yelling or anything else!

    my mom trained the lab we lost with the "Lead Training" that a trainer named John Wade taught us. You put the dog on a leash and put the leash around your ankle...wherever you goes, the dog goes and eventually, you can take the dog off for longer and longer periods of time... this works (as far as i understand) because in the end, you could be across the room and the dog will still think s/he is attached to you, therefore deterring any errant behaviour..

    if you stick with it, are firm and keep a calm, but assertive, "pack leader" mentality, you will have your little terror :-) trained in no time!
