About the Artist

Ron Verwey - Biography

ron verwey fine art

I have been painting with a palette knife since 2007. I was introduced to this method of painting by, Carl Anderson, a photo realist under whom I studied. It was during this period that it was instilled in me that my art needs to be quality and process driven. 

 

 

I enjoy the process of painting and in so doing I welcome the tension between the predictable and the unpredictable. It is the applying of the paint, be it oils or watercolor, that I enjoy the most. 

 

 

"In selecting a subject matter there should be a personal connection, an inner drive to interpret, to express how I feel about that subject matter and, when I am finished it is time for the world to view it.  Now if there is someone out there who can relate to it, then I know it was worthwhile painting".  Ron Verwey
