Ron Scharfe

Ron Scharfe’s abstract modern art inspirations are in the interplay of color and form, and the beauty and movement emerging from their interplay.

I am inspired by exploring. When you explore, the unexpected happens: color upon color; form upon form…movement creating shapes, which are suddenly rearranged into some other order. Mimicking impermanence, revealing and yet disguising what lies beneath.”

Based in Palm Springs, California, Ron is inspired by Lyrical Abstraction and artists such as Paul Jenkins, Mark Rothko, Alice Barber and Marshall Noice. These artists have an incredible sense of color, placement and imagination.

Ron Scharfe began painting in his 20s. He holds a B.A. in Fine Arts from the Art Institute of Chicago, has an associate degree in Interior Design, and has trained in color/design with Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Insititute and director of the Eiseman Color Institute. His background in modern art and his years of work as a design professional have given him a unique aesthetic sensibility that he is driven to express in his fine art works.
