| The color choices Ron is famous for today were present from the start.
“There’s nothing subtle or muted about a pet’s love, especially — especially — a dog’s,” says Ron. “It’s full-strength, heart-felt and wild-as-the-wind. So the green-apple colors, the fire-truck reds, the swimming-pool blues really chose themselves.
Brilliant, saturated colors are the only ways I can begin to capture what each of us experiences with the dogs and cats that nurture us.”
Ron begins each portrait with the eyes.
“Their eyes hold nothing back, whether it’s love or fear, heartbreak or admiration. Every portrait begins with the eyes — they have to — because from there all the life and personality radiates outward,” he says. |
