Hey there, thanks for stopping in to visit. Hope you'll come back again soon.My name is Rick and I work as a Software Developer developing client server and web based applications for companies such as Walt Disney World, Darden Restaurants, Kemper Insurance and Triple A. I am currently working as a contractor developing and designing websites and QA testing applications.
I love to paint and take photographs and travel around the country doing art shows and have even won a few awards and make a living at it. Starving artists are no fun, all they ever paint is food!
