Ron’s enigmatic themes beg for explanations. It will be a treat to hear him describe the inspirations and process.\nWorking in wood\, stone\, metal and other natural materials\, Ron creates beautifully executed\, multi textured works of art that almost defy explanation. His highly conceptual work\, combined with meticulous craftsmanship\, commands attention. The viewer gradually sees beyond the surface beauty into the unexpected mystery of each piece. In Ron’s words\, “My work celebrates the journey of the creative process\, born from conceptual images\, inspired by my imagination\, and realized using the tactile\, organic attraction natural materials. Throughout this process there is a continuing dialogue that takes place between the materials and the design\, as well as a commitment to enduring craftsmanship. The process involves creating a fluid vocabulary\, through a language of materials. The finished work offers the viewer my visual message\, constructed from layers of tactile materials and subtle details.” \nHe often uses a variety of materials: metal\, stone\, fossils\, found objects\, light or digital imagery – but wood and metal are often the primary materials. Deciding what palette of woods to use\, the grain direction and figure\, subtle changes in natural coloration\, decisions on relief relationships\, overlays or inlays\, contrasts in texture\, color\, or material\, subtle or dramatic detailing… are just some of the decisions that take place throughout his creative process. These materials are merged seamlessly into a finely crafted final piece of work. It is through these sensitive relationships\, conversations\, and skillful executions that each piece is born. The closer you look at Ron’s wall sculptures\, the more you will hear that “language of materials.” \nRon began creating these multi-material sculptures in the mid 70’s and quickly caught the attention of the art world. Numerous shows\, exhibitions and commissions followed. He has been awarded grants to produce art in public places\, and had his work published in several art magazines. After living in Texas and then Maine\, Ron and his family moved to St. Augustine in 2004. His work has been shown in The Cultural Center of Ponte Vedra Beach\, the St. Augustine Art Association\, and can be viewed every day at Butterfield Garage Gallery.

The gallery will be exhibiting Spanish and French lithograph editions\, signed by the artist. Join us for refreshments during the event to view a prominent collection of Dali’s surrealist lithographs. \nSalvador Dali (1904-1989) was born in Figueras\, Spain. As a surrealist painter and printmaker\, Dali is best known for his explorations of subconscious imagery. From his melting clock to the burning giraffe\, Dali rallied against the tradition of pre-meditated painting\, preferring to draw upon his subconscious mind to bring imagery to life. Having left art school before taking his final exam\, Dali estranged himself from his father and took up a fishing shack on Port Lligat. This was a location that would figure prominently both in his real life and in his work. He felt that passing an exam was insulting as a means of determining his position as an artist. As a student he developed a vast number of artistic styles and showed great technical skills as a painter.

Throughout this process there is a continuing dialogue that takes place between the materials and the design\, as well as a commitment to enduring craftsmanship.

Ron’s enigmatic themes beg for explanations. It will be a treat to hear him describe the inspirations and process.\nWorking in wood\, stone\, metal and other natural materials\, Ron creates beautifully executed\, multi textured works of art that almost defy explanation. His highly conceptual work\, combined with meticulous craftsmanship\, commands attention. The viewer gradually sees beyond the surface beauty into the unexpected mystery of each piece. In Ron’s words\, “My work celebrates the journey of the creative process\, born from conceptual images\, inspired by my imagination\, and realized using the tactile\, organic attraction natural materials. Throughout this process there is a continuing dialogue that takes place between the materials and the design\, as well as a commitment to enduring craftsmanship. The process involves creating a fluid vocabulary\, through a language of materials. The finished work offers the viewer my visual message\, constructed from layers of tactile materials and subtle details.” \nHe often uses a variety of materials: metal\, stone\, fossils\, found objects\, light or digital imagery – but wood and metal are often the primary materials. Deciding what palette of woods to use\, the grain direction and figure\, subtle changes in natural coloration\, decisions on relief relationships\, overlays or inlays\, contrasts in texture\, color\, or material\, subtle or dramatic detailing… are just some of the decisions that take place throughout his creative process. These materials are merged seamlessly into a finely crafted final piece of work. It is through these sensitive relationships\, conversations\, and skillful executions that each piece is born. The closer you look at Ron’s wall sculptures\, the more you will hear that “language of materials.” \nRon began creating these multi-material sculptures in the mid 70’s and quickly caught the attention of the art world. Numerous shows\, exhibitions and commissions followed. He has been awarded grants to produce art in public places\, and had his work published in several art magazines.
