Working with Richard Piper has always been a pleasure. Besides his talent the main aspect that makes him a joy to work with is his ability to take in critiques and act when needed. He is a key member to the team when I was at ND and having him around made for a stronger team. His personality is upbeat and hard working. Richard is very dependable. Another aspect is he is extremely humble as an artist. Richard is always trying to learn and push his craft. I highly recommend him and feel free to reach out.
