Rick Daskam studied art at Paier College of Art from 1978 – 1982. His paintings have appeared in Art Galleries and Juried Exhibitions throughout Connecticut and New York area. In 1998 he followed his passion of painting plein-air and spent his time painting landscapes and farms in the local area surrounding his home.

Returning every year for a week of “sun up to sun down painting”, the artist has produced some of his most memorable works.
