Rick is a former student of UCD and BCFE and has been a radio presenter since he escaped college in 1993. He’s been a TV and radio presenter with RTE since 2001. In his other life, he developed epilepsy at the age of 16 and has been the national Patron of Epilepsy Ireland since 2006.
He has no training of any kind in art, not even having taken it as a subject for the Leaving Cert. This shows in his egg. The text on the egg is from the poem below. It seemed appropriate at the time :).
Phoenix
She is the summer sun,

Falling blue, gently but relentlessly

Against eternal sandstone,

She is the reason dead green shutters have undone,

Flung everything within them to the day,

She makes ruins glow,

Folds shadows under waiting stone,

Even, unbeknownst to her, from half a world away.
