Richard Burke Jones

I am an Irish citizen and artist with a love for painting Irish scenes. I am currently living in Newburyport, MA, USA with roots in Cork and Kerry. I have painted for a number of years in watercolor and oil - often painting outside. I was trained at the Museum School in Boston, MA and by Robert Cormier, Past President of the Guild of Boston Artists, Daniel Greene for portraiture and John Pike for watercolor. My work may be found in many private and corporate collections as well in the permanent collection of the Newport Art Museum in Newport, Rhode Island and the Custom House Maritime Museum, Newburyport MA. I am a past Board member of the Guild. I am a direct descendant of Maura Bwee O’Leary from Inchigeelagh.
