Artists Background

Specializing in mixed media Art

Born in the early 1950"s. Over a lifetime Rick has worked on creative projects from large to small. Designing and self building his own house back in the late 70's. That project was truly a labor of love. At another property, building functional and natural looking waterfalls and Koi Ponds. Large projects with large materials.

When not working on a large project, finding pleasure and relaxation in small art related media.

Dabbling in sculptures, painting, drawing, colored pencil, stained glass, tile, mosaics, plaster, natural stone, composites, woodworking, metalworking, photography, and re-purposing.

With a huge love of the outdoors many pieces reflect nature to some degree. As pieces are created, sold, or given to friends or clients, the hope is to keep records going forward.

Inspiration and basic raw materials are often due to Marilyn's influence (Rick's wife). Marilyn has collected the odd and unusual objects at Estate Sales and Antique Flea markets. Both have been traveling, buying, creating, and selling together since 2000.

Pieces are often artist signed as R BEACH and include the year.
