DRAW PAINT SLEEP REPEAT: Paintings in oil by Rick Mjos

a short chronology:
In 1976, after attending North Hennepin State Junior College, the Minneapolis College of Art and Design, the University of Minnesota and a full-ride all expenses paid 3 year World tour with the US Army Rick moved to Murray. In 1980 Rick received a BFA from Murray State University.

Since that time Rick has been involved in various endeavors from cutting tobacco and landscaping to free-lancing illustration and Artwork for hire.  The past twenty years have found Mjos working as a letter carrier for the US Postal service, and as a result the pursuit of art was put on hold.  Now, Mjos says he’s back to painting “and maybe just a little more mature (in years, anyway).”

Rick is a member of the Murray Art Guild where he regularly attends life drawing sessions. The Murray Art Guild, a community visual arts group, is located at 500 North 4th Street and is open to the community Tuesday through Saturday 10am – 3pm. The Kentucky Arts Council, a state agency in the Commerce Cabinet, provides operational support funding for the Murray Art Guild with state tax dollars and federal funding from the National Endowment of the Arts, which believes that a great nation deserves great art.
