Born in York, Pennsylvania, Rick Unger was soon embraced by the world as one of the next upcoming artists. He exhibited a mastery of many mediums including oil, watercolor, pastel and clay sculpture. This rare talent did not go unnoticed.

By the time Rick was a teen he was studying art at the York Vocational Technical School, where his talent was recognized and he achieved such excellence that his piece “Learning Young”, a montage of trades in watercolor and pastel, was hung in the school’s Guidance Office. He went on to create “Giant Ladle”, a 40”x 60” oil depicting a ladle pouring molten steel, which was hung in the Director’s office at the school. This work was later placed on exhibit at the Industrial And Agricultural Museum of York, Pennsylvania where it is still on display.

With such a prestigious start it didn't take long for corporations to crave his artistic talents and over the years he has supplied major corporations with his graphic designs and artwork.

Currently, Rick is drawing on his extensive travels in Texas and Colorado to lend authenticity to some of his western inspired oil paintings.

Rick now resides in the mountain resort town of Pagosa Springs, Colorado with Jody, his wife of 25 years. Pagosa Springs is located only 20 miles from the Continental Divide and this scenic paradise unleashes his artistic creativity.
