Born into a lineage of Italian artists dating back to the Medici era, Ricky has spent decades transforming a dilapidated house into his own whimsical wonderland.

“My master plan was never to have a master plan. I didn’t set out to build an art environment.  Basically, I needed a place to live.”
- Ricky Boscarino
