Ron Hicks Solo Show at Arcadia Gallery
---------------------------------
Early Morning Light 47 X 37 in. framed
Opening tomorrow at Arcadia Gallery in New York City is the latest solo exhibit from forty-one year-old Coloradan, Ron Hicks. With his muted palette, stylized figures, and his signature painterly style, Hicks creates works with a vintage look, despite the recent introduction of 20th century elements to his imagery. In this current show, on view until May 7th, the artist continues to explore atmosphere, mood, and the theme of relationships, this time focussing more on romance, glamour, and sexual intrigue. His open-ended narratives are ever-popular, and Hicks' previous solo exhibits have all been sell-outs; this show is likely to have the same result.

Your descriptions are excellent! I tried to pick a favorite but I'd love to own any or all the pieces because I know I would tire of seeing them on my walls daily. Thanks so much for showcasing his works!
Matthew, I really appreciate you sharing your amazing paintings and your informative blog. I was fortunate enough to have Ron as an instructor at the Art Students League April 2010 and I gained a lot of insight from him. Ron is an inspirational instructor with a refreshing personality and is adept in conveying his artistic knowledge. Ron’s expressive body of work is representative of his masterful artistic ablity.
