Rick Cannizzaro is a nationally recognized artist/author who has awakened a new appreciation for earth’s endangered life through his expressive art.

In 1994 he was juried into the prestigious “Oil Pastel Association”. His portraits include civic leaders, members of Congress, and college presidents.  His acrylic paintings have hung in many galleries and have caught the attention of national publishers. Most recently Rick has been commissioned by Ocean Publishing for a series of art exhibits in conjunction with a new book release, such as Jean-Michael Cousteau’s “Explore the Southeast National Marine Sanctuaries”. In Rick’s marine life paintings his combination of vibrant colors and whimsical style has gained fans across the country.  Rick has also written a children’s book, “Ludi the Loggerhead Turtle”, that combines his marine art and his commitment to promoting awareness among children. His latest book is dedicated to his next exhibit “The Endangered Life Series”.


His inspiration for his paintings comes from nature, anywhere from the coastal beaches to exotic forests. Rick dedicates his art to enhance the awareness of the beauty of nature and its delicate balance for survival.

Now at The Museum of Arts and Science in Daytona Beach (MOAS)
