Although Ron is mostly known for his work as a tattoo artist, he has always had a passion for painting. Ron often fuses the line work and simplicity of traditional tattooing with a more spontaneous and loose painting technique. His work is heavily influenced by the solitude, animals, and landscapes of the high desert and Sierra Nevada. 

Ron is a father of 3 and currently lives in Reno, NV where he tattoos full time and makes paintings. When he isn't making art, Ron can be found exploring Sierra trails, lakes and streams with his dog, Dusty.
