about Rick

Resume, Brochure

Artist

For as long as I can remember, the need to draw and play with color has always been innate. My creative response to the world around me has never changed. I love to use my imagination and acquired skills to make artistic expressions that improve our visual landscape.

Designer

After my education from Art Center College of Design, Pasadena CA, my mission to improve visual communications has been both a challenge and a love. The purpose of my work has been—to help. Whether it be to solve public transit agency challenges, or help non-profit organizations to thrive, or work closely with food producers and manufacturers to design branding and corporate identities, I have always loved the art of messaging.

Educator

A true passion of mine is teaching as a college professor. It has been a real privilege to work with young minds for nearly 40 years. Through the years, I have seen a lot of changes and challenges in the Design and art workspace. I have seen and been a part of creative adjustments in curriculums, that follow current trends and technology.

Commercial Art and Design

40 years designing Logos, Brochures, billboards, ads and ad campaigns, etc.

Studio Art

I love to work in a variety of mediums, from traditional graphite and charcoal, to printmaking, Crayola crayons, ink, watercolor, and acrylic paint. In addition, I have extensive experience working in digital media.

Special Projects

I have been fortunate for being invited to produce all kinds of fun and interesting projects from event design, art for cemeteries and mausoleums, printed calendars and promotional products.

Public Art

It is a huge honor to produce work that is seen in public spaces. My approach has been to always consider the viewer in the context of where the art is installed. My hope is that those seeing my art will have a positive experience.
