Rick Hewitt makes and produces each sculpture individually himself.
Each piece of the sculpture is cut from copper by Rick. Each
sculpture has
its
own unique and individual design, texture and color. The textures
are hammered into the copper by hand, and the colors are the result
of a special chemical burn that Rick has perfected. The sculptures
are all different in design, color and texture. The beautiful “Hill
Country” where Rick lives has influenced his nature oriented colors
and designs. Rick likes for his sculpture to blend in with nature.
Rick works in his studio in Spicewood, TX, near Lake Travis. Rick
is a custom home builder and uses his meticulous builders detailing
in his sculpture construction methods. You are able to see the
builder in his sculpture, and the artist in his building.
Rick currently exhibits his work in New Mexico, Salado and Artisans
at Rocky Hill in Fredericksburg.
