Ron was born in Detroit and attended The
Art School of the Detroit Society of Arts and Crafts, later Center for Creative
Studies. He has had many solo and juried group shows as well as commissions.
His work is a unique artistic vision in a contemporary style, embodying the
essential mystery and spiritual beauty of nature and the human psyche.
"Rather than depict the specific, I use veils of color in a personal, poetic
manner using a harmony of forms from observed, created, and remembered sources.
I paint with enough content that the mind and imagination are pleased and
with enough literal image that the eye is also satisfied. Hopefully, my art
conveys a sense of art spirit, balance, and beauty in an increasingly chaotic
world."
