The artist uses his skillful blending of the two mediums to capture unique subjects with an attention to intimate detail. “The appreciation of art should not be considered as a simple pleasurable pastime. Art communicates a statement and becomes a permanent form of expression – a spark between me and my audience. I paint within a window, which reveals a small portion of a story. The true appreciation of my work comes from the intrigue beyond the frame – the interaction between what I create and what is seen – and the inspiration that keeps us coming back for more.”
Ron's paintings have received numerous awards from various juried exhibits. Most recently, “Art of Medicine,”  was awarded Best of Show at the 2018 Carnegie Center for the Arts, Juried Regional Fine Arts Competition in Three Rivers, MI.
