About the tutor Ron Best:
A classically trained artist and teacher, Ron Best has exhibited widely.
Ron’s art explores the boundaries between figuration and abstraction, the frontiers where the classical tradition of painting and printmaking fuse with a Modernist sensibility. His work has an instinctive sense of the creative process. Searching out the rich and sensual possibilities of paint, collage and printmaking, Ronald typically creates a dense matrix of layered form, colour and texture, offering a new perception of reality.
