ick Rickert, a Newtown Square resident since 2009, has been creating art ever since he could hold a pencil. He took many art courses at the Philadelphia College of Art, and enjoys working with acrylics, color pencils, and watercolors, carving wood, and making jewelry. Rick creates art because it relaxes him. Every artistic creation has first come to him in a dream. After four straight nights of vividly dreaming about a tugboat, he realized that he had to make it a reality.

He had never built a tugboat — or even set foot on one! After extensive internet research, he chose the tugboat he found most interesting: It was 50' Long x 23' Wide and 52' High. He built it to ½" to 1' scale, with no printed plans because the plans were already in his head.
