About the Artist

Raised by an entomologist and a science teacher, Ricki grew up fossil hunting, visiting natural history museums and spending summers in the university biology lab. She quickly developed a sacred appreciation for the colors, shapes and ecosystems that contribute to the vast and inexplicable beauty of nature.

 Her artwork is layered with impressionism that accentuate a perspective of reverence and awe for the natural world.

Ricki currently lives in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and gleans inspiration from her friendships, parents’ petrified wood collection and the personalities of her farm animals.
