Rick Byrd- Artist

Specializing in works of art works created in oils or acrylic.  I studied at Industrial Design and painting at the University of Kansas obtaining a Bachelors Degree in Fine Arts. Combining the technical aspect of industrial design with painting has allowed me to create a unique style of traditional realism.

My works span a wide range of subject matter including cigar and wine themed pieces along with sports, landscapes, still life paintings, and murals. Unique creations have been commissioned by the St. Louis Cardinals, KC Royals, Chicago Cubs, along with Colleges including TCU and K State.

Residing with my family in Springfield Missouri has been the perfect place to experience nature and all it has to offer. Streams, hiking trails, and beautiful lakes inspire my work.
