Swell Lyfe Studio is a multidisciplinary studio whose work flows between painting, graphic design, and custom signage. Drawing constant inspiration from the ocean, Rick creates pieces that echo the rhythm, color, and movement of the coastline. When not in the studio, you’ll likely find Rick in the water—surfboard under arm—chasing waves and fresh perspectives.

Blending bold visual communication with the organic energy of beach culture, Rick’s creative style is both expressive and intentional. Whether crafting vibrant murals, clean modern graphics, or hand-painted signs, Rick brings a deep love of coastal life into every project. Through art and surf, he aims to share the sense of freedom, connection, and calm that the ocean unfailingly provides.

 

“Every wave is a canvas you ride once; every painting is a wave you can return to.”

Rick Ricketts
