About this Event
Join us for the first installment of Unveiled at Vine, a curated gallery series of visual storytelling, creative connections, and cultural appreciation. Each edition features one artist whose work invites us to pause, reflect, and be inspired.
Our debut spotlight is on Ron Smith, a Louisiana-born artist whose BLACK ICON SERIES pays tribute to African American icons who have shaped the world through brilliance and resilience.
Artist Bio: Ron Smith is a visual artist and graphic designer whose journey spans over 30 years. A graduate of Mississippi Valley State University, Ron combines fine art and digital expression in a deeply personal fusion of style, texture, and narrative.
After a 29-year pause following a life-changing accident, Ron was inspired by his son — also an artist — to return to the canvas. His works draw from his rural Southern roots and explore cultural memory, identity, and healing.
Artist Statement
“Each stroke, each layer, and each texture in my abstract works is an expression of my innermost thoughts and feelings. I embrace the unpredictability of the abstract, allowing it to guide my hands and heart.” - Ron Smith
