Todd Richardson

Todd Richardson is a sculptor, ceramicist, and visual arts educator with nearly 20 years experience in public and private high schools. Born and raised in Wisconsin, Todd began his career in Green Bay teaching ceramics, sculpture, and 3D Design courses before uprooting his family and moving across the country to lead the Arts Department at Verde Valley School in Sedona, AZ. Now in his sixth year, Todd has contributed to the education and burgeoning artistic output of Verde Valley School students while making time to immerse himself in the vast landscapes of the southwest, explore Sedona from a mountain bike saddle, and spend as much time as possible with his wife and three daughters. His work explores the intersection of humanity and the environment by representing people of all backgrounds in the settings in which they live, work, and recreate. By observing the relationship between people and place he hopes to inspire in viewers the importance of land management, protection, conservation before these great wild places are gone.
