Ricky Hill

Member Since May 4th, 2009

Rick Hill Rick Hill was born and raised on the shores of Lake Erie, in Erie Pennsylvania. After graduating high school in 1970, and working for four years, he attended the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, where he graduated in 1976. In 1981 he made the move to Los Angeles, and for 27 years worked in the graphic design world. He studied at the Santa Monica City College, the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, and Otis College of Art and Design, Los Angeles, and is mostly self-taught. Over the course of his 10 year sculpting career—and for years preparing to sculpt and attend shows—he studied many well known sculptors and their work.

His subjects are mostly western themes and wildlife.

Featured Art Work

First Catch of the Day Limited edition bronze eagle perched after catching his first meal of the day.

This piece inspired me after my sisters in Erie PA sent me an article on how the eagles where returning to the peninsula on lake Erie.

This sculpture will be cast to order.
