Bio: Ron Stocke’s painting career began over 20 years ago in the Yakima Valley. Capturing the landscapes of the Yakima Valley taught Ron techniques that he has developed into his recognizable style. Over two decades later, Ron currently lives and paints with his artist-wife, Ursula, in Everett, Washington. Moving to Seattle in the late nineteen-eighties, Ron looked toward the Puget Sound for his inspiration. There he began his career as a nautical artist. While seascapes and marine art remains Ron’s primary subject, recently his focus has been drawn towards urban landscapes and the beauty of architecture. Whether it is the downtown streets and alleys of Seattle and Portland, the historic architecture of London, or the beauty of the Irish countryside, Ron continues to challenge himself with new subjects. Traveling to Europe and Mexico has given Ron an abundance of material and priceless plein air painting experience. “Traveling has enriched both my life and my artwork more than I could have imagined, I plan on doing both for as long as I can”. Ron gives credit to early mentors for encouraging him to peruse his interest in the arts. Ron holds a degree in graphic arts from J.M Perry Technical Arts Institute and his artwork has won several awards throughout the west coast. His artwork can be seen on product packaging throughout the United States. Ron is a member of the American Society of Marine artists and the Puget Sound Group of Northwest Painters.
