Born and raised in Massachusetts, Rick Fleury has enjoyed an exhilarating career as an artist and environmentalist – leaving behind successful careers as a journalist and an executive officer and creative director in New York agency advertising and public relations.

His minimalist, contemporary style of landscape is widely associated with Cape Cod and coastal New England, achieving national and international recognition. He has used his work as a platform to speak on the issues of conservation, preservation and environmental awareness.

The artist was honored with a solo exhibition at the Cape Cod Museum of Art in 2006. He was later included in An Exhibition from the Permanent Collection at the Provincetown Art Association and Museum, and in recent invitational exhibitions at the Cahoon Museum of American Art, The Cotuit Center for the Arts, The Harvard Club of Boston, Boston International Fine Art Show, Art & Design 20/21, Boston, and the Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival.

He is an Artist Member of Boston's Copley Society of Art, the oldest art association in the United States. His work has been selected for numerous juried and invitational exhibitions with Copley, resulting in major awards and a near-sellout solo exhibition in 2008.

A year-round artist on Cape Cod from 1997 to 2016, Fleury is a graduate of the University of Colorado Boulder, School of Journalism and Mass Communication. He also pursued Executive Education at New York University, Stern School of Business, and NYU's School of Continuing and Professional Studies.

His work is in the permanent collections of the Cape Cod Museum of Art, the Provincetown Art Association and Museum, the Cahoon Museum of American Art, Dana-Farber / Brigham and Women's Cancer Center, Bessemer Trust Company, North America, Ritz-Carlton Luxury Hotels, John Hancock, Dartmouth - Hitchcock Medical Center, Massachusetts General Hospital (Mass General), the Arts & Business Council of Greater Boston, and other corporate and private collections worldwide. He has served on the faculties of two museum schools; the Cape Cod Museum of Art and the Provincetown Art Association and Museum, Museum School, and has offered workshops at the professional level through the Copley Society of Art, Boston. The artist lives and works in Maine.
