Born and raised in New England, Rick has been creating art since childhood.
He studied Painting at Massachusetts Collage of Art and Design. His work is a reaction to 9-11 and a reflection of his introspective nature. Characteristic of his work, is a “bird’s eye” like perspective which he employs in order to creates a voyeuristic feeling in which the viewer is witness to his accidental choreography of people on the pavement below.

Texture, lighting and pattern are all key components which Legge incorporates beautifully into his work. His color palette is restrained and typically neutral, which results in a quiet, relaxing work of art. While entertaining to the eye, the viewer is always left with a sense of curiosity as to who his subjects are, and where they are going. Rick Legge maintains a studio today in the Boston area.
