Rick Beerhorst

I am a full time working artist currently living in both Grand Rapids Michigan and Munich Germany. I am printmaker, painter and sculptor who believes that art making is building a bridge between the physical and the spiritual worlds. If there was a thick rawhide membrane between the two worlds, art making rubs that membrane thin, transparent and permeable.
