The Starlite Painting is something that distinguishes Rick's artwork from others. His paintings "come to life" right before your eyes. Starlite's are all hand remastered and they change from a day scene to a night, or Starlite, scene under special UV lighting. Clouds move, stars come out and the entire painting changes right in front of your eyes. Each painting takes a minimum of 40 studio hours to create. By commissioning a Starlite, you are getting a valuable work of art. The average time to receive your commission is about 6 months from ordering. The time is dependent on Rick's work schedule and open commissions. They cannot be rushed. Some works can take as long as a year or more to complete due to the number of commissions on file. Please understand, these are all done individually by the artist and not something we just take off of the stack and send out...To Commissions a Starlite, please choose the option when ordering. We offer payment plans on all Starlite commissions and only ask for a $100 deposit to start your painting...
