Rick Hyman

Artist and Historian Rick Hyman and his wife Ronda presented paintings, slide show and a book of Hyman’s heritage which includes slaves and landowners. Thanks to seventh grade teacher, Gila Brook, students received the pleasure of listening to Hyman.

Hyman’s work has been showcased in several museum exhibits and on USPS commemorative envelops and postcards. He recently helped 150 families express their family history through art.

His novel, “My Texas Family: An Uncommon Journey to Prosperity,” documents his ancestral heritage and photographs that his family took from 1912 – 1927.  Hyman plans to paint depictions based on 300 photographs. He has painted 36 since 1996 with the help of his creative adviser, his wife.
