Derick Snow was born in Missouri and lived in Barrow Alaska before eventually finding his way to Green Country, painting with bands and performing artists. He has been painting regularly for 5 years, coloring canvas to the heartbeat of the sounds that swirl around him, splashing his energy at those he may inspire. His first exhibition saw 17 of 30 works sold in a month's time and has been selling to clients regularly ever since.
Derick is heavily influenced by the chaotic balance of nature, allowing his painting to take whatever shape the moment has allowed for. Many times symbolic images withdraw from the shadows to reveal hidden meanings right beyond the surreal, whispered textures of moons, melancholic trees and the human condition.
Derick creates private and public commissions, and speaks to groups about art and the importance of creativity in real world situation. For inquiries please email him or fly over to his myspace page.
In addition to painting, Derick is a photojournalist and actor, appearing on his own children's program in Tulsa on Cox Cable ch. 20 titled, "Quick Draw Derick". He's determined to bring the arts out to the people.

Hi Snow Eyes! Welcome to TCN! I see you're also
a fan of Shel Silverstein! I cry every time I read,
"The Giving Tree" to my students, sappy huh?
I love reading his poetry out loud. It's so much
fun. Since you're a poet, you should join TCN's,
"Ned Poets Society". Rob Harris leads our group.
