i have been trying to find information about the artist Rishe and came across your blog. Do you know much about the artist as i have his painting 'The Out Station'
Hi Rachel. Ewald Rishe lived at Bahrs Scrub, Queensland. He was known for his outback themed oil paintings in the Style of Hugh Sawrey. Prints of his work are available. One source described him as an "Australian artist on the rise". The Logan City Council extended condolences when he passed away 4th July, 2010, aged 65. It would be nice if you could upload a photo of "The Out Station". Warm regards.
Woody was a great friend and was a great person, he was a true artist with that eccentric personality, we had some fun times. he was straight up.He is sadly missed
:( Ewold Rishe (woody) as we called him.. rode and trained my nan and pops race horses until he passed away in my back yard last year. Towards the end of his life he hadn't painted as much. There were heaps of unfinished sketches in his house that hadnt been touched in ages. He was a man that didn't like to talk about his life, or his age so much. Most of the things that everyone knows now he had kept secret for over 30 years. Since he'd been working on my property. He was a good man, very opinionated. His best friends were horses and cats and wallabies and just animals in general. He originated from Austria from where he travelled and eventually landed in Australia. After his passing we waited months before there was a funeral because all his parents were doing was disputng over the money in his property and his paintings. He was leaving his property to the RACQ as a nature park for wildlife until he found out they were shooting horses from helicopters. Then he changed his mind. He was gone before he had even thought of a better option so the property sits there remaining untouched, just the way it should be. It was a really hard time in my life when this happened last year so i appolagise for the life story. As you know his paintings are no longer proceeding so whatever there is in this world is all there will ever be. You are blessed to have one of them i only hope you can try and understand that every one of his paintings was a place he saw, or a place he went.. a place he missed or a place he wanted to leave. Either way you have part of the story of his life in your home so take good care of it :)
I have 8 paintings done by Woody ..I met him when he was playing Polo Crosse for the Gold Coast Club.....i made Polo Crosse rackets and he bought plenty from me....He paid me in paintings...I have bought a few over the years .My last buy was in 2019 ..I love his work ..I think about him when i walk down my hall where they hang...Yours Ted Curtis..
I have 10 paintings Woody done..I knew him when he played a little polo crosse at the gold Coast club...at that time i made polo Crosse Racquets and he would exchange a bundle of new and second hand racquets for one of his beautiful paintings..Has any one got a photo of him....I am smitten by his paintings and bought my last woody painting in 11-2020.... I have a small one of a girl half portrait un clothed ..an unusual painting by woody...I love all of his paintings ...
Hi I met woody many years ago ,he was playing Polo crosse at the Gold coast. He would teach people how to play and use a racket. At that time i made polo Crosse racquets ,woody would order some or buy second hand ones .Instead of money he would give me paintings,i still have them Today.Ted Curtis.
Hello, I knew Woody for many years and he was a dear friend of mine and my family It came as a terrible shock when I heard he had passed away. I do have an original painting of his that I would like to sell. I am currently in Australia but have been living in Texas, USA for the past 24 years. I can be contacted at anniemcbrine@yahoo.com
Hi, I have one of his painting as well. It was purchased for $800 or so dollars in Queensland. It's a painting with stockmen at a camp fire with horses. Will take a picture if you want. I am thinking about selling it. Cheer,
http://1drv.ms/1tURLqP is a link to my onedrive with the front and back pics taken. My friend purchased it in Queensland while she was on holiday and she gave it to me when she was moving from Tasmania to the Northern Territory. I am hoping it is worth some money so I can sell it.
Hi John, I am not sure if you received the email I sent about the Rishe painting I have? If you are still interested, please email me direct at outbackpub1@aol.com ... You had contacted me on the 9th of May through my Yahoo email which I only check once in a blue moon. The aol email address is checked and used daily. Thank you, Wilma

ReplyDeleteI didn't know Woody was such a lover of nature. That's great! I would love to see some more of Woody Rishe's paintings if possible some day.
