Rick Schettino has lived a life defined by his passion for music and the lure of the road. As a solo singer/songwriter and professional free spirit, Rick spent the past 25 years traversing North America spreading joy through music while working remotely as a freelance art director. Now settled in on the Florida Gulf Coast, Schettino leverages several decades of creative experience to venture into the world of fine art for luxury interiors. Infusing his passion for guitars with his deep-rooted understanding of design, Schettino meticulously transforms new and rescued stringed instruments into "wall jewelry" — elaborate sculptures, melding "found objects" with intensely deliberate design. Each piece is a chronicle of the destruction of high function and complete re-imagination into pure form. Rick Schettino creates one-of-a-kind statement sculptures, simultaneously elegant and opulent, that produce a visual crescendo in any room they inhabit.
