His talent became obvious and noted throughout his high school career and Ron was awarded a full scholarship to Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus, OH.
He later returned to Denver and subsequently earned a degree in Advertising Design.
After college, Ron applied his degree and natural talent to working for Ad agencies, Magazines and as a Freelance Illustrator.
He would soon realize his true passion, and Ron's natural talent and his eye for beauty encouraged a shift in the direction of his style of painting.
