Ron is a retired Iraq war veteran who has served around the world at least twice but made El Paso, Texas, home. 

Ron has always had a desire to do something that allows him to work out the designs and ideas in his head and hands. He has found a way to do just that through metal sculpture. Alongside his desire to create art, he also feels compelled to be a part of a group that not only supports the arts but also promotes it. He recently joined the Las Artistas board to help promote the arts in El Paso and the surrounding area. 

While Ron hasn’t been an artist for very long, he understands the complexities that this profession can bring as he has been a longtime supporter of his wife Romy and her art. Together, they have a gallery in San Elizario, TX in the Historic San Elizario Art District.
