Provenance: Ron was born on the 22nd of March 1922 in the East end of London, lived there with his parents and brother. It was a happy childhood. They later moved to Kent. Ron was a very special talented person, who, when he died, was a much loved husband, bother-in-law, uncle and friend to countless people. After signing up to the Royal Navy, he became one of the crew for a frigate on the North Sea Convoy as an engineer. This was an awful experience and one that after the war inspired him to write a poem just to remind people how awful war was. After the NSC he then went to America as one of the crew tasked with bringing flat bottom boats back across the Atlantic to take their place in the Second World War.After the war he got a job as an engineer in several big companies and worked in London until a tradgedy shattered his life. This event caused him to make the decision to to pursue his great love of art in Cornwall. He bought a small cottage in Mount Hawke and started painting, doing commissions, having exhibitions with other people and then gradually on his own. He also made sculptures and wrote poetry, stories and music. Work was commissioned by all sorts of places in Cornwall including schools and a sculpture of John Opie which is in St Agnes Museum.One of his abstract works in Bronze won an open competition at the Penrith Gallery St Ives. He started working with fibre-glass and later, in his sixties he became fascinated the way the computer can be used to produce Art and created many beautiful digital pieces .As well as doing commissions he loved to teach, especially children, so he was a regular teacher in some schools and in others went to do projects. Any child we have spoken to that was taught by Ron, we have been told what an excellent teacher he was. By selling the paintings any proceeds that we make will go to help and encourage children with their future ideas of art.Some time after he came to Cornwall he met Dawn, both walking along the cliff path near Tubby's Head! His favourite fishing site!! She became his wife, his friend and constant companion, and in his later years when he got Parkinson's disease she did an amazing job of looking after him.Ron loved Cornwall and rarely left it, He died in 2009.
