"Ron, your sculpture’s stirring things up—130+ comments on Oak Bay Local!"

“This sculpture is causing lots of discussion—so it is good art. The icing on the cake: it uses recycled material.”

'Canadian Woman' is now installed in the #Penticton Public #Sculpture Exhibit!

She speaks to the roles modern #women take on—expected to lead, perform, and still look appealing.

Excited to see 'Modern Man Does Research' in Oak Bay’s #Arts Alive! Ironic it’s by a library—I spent my career at UBC Library.

Criticism or not, I’m glad it’s sparking #dialogue. #Art lives when it gets people talking.

Took a little road trip down the I-5 to #Seattle to check out the #Seattle #Erotic #Art #Festival (SEAF)—a show I’ve exhibited at a few times over the years. Great to see the scene alive again. Looking forward to what next year brings!

“Canadian Woman” is coming to life! Made from chrome bumpers salvaged from wrecked trucks it’s a tribute to the #energy, #mobility, and the #strength of #women excelling in roles once dominated by men. See it at Art Vancouver, opening April 24!

What Does the Nose Know? – A provocative sculpture of mine, now at Emily Carr University of Art + Design in YVR.

It critiques corporate surveillance, highlighting how "Big Data" manipulates our lives.

It asks: What are they really watching? 🕵️‍♂️🔍

Just got back from an inspiring trip to #LA, exploring some incredible #art shows; the LA #Art #Show, The Other #Art #Fair, and the Felix #Art #Fair.

From cutting-edge contemporary #pieces to boundary-pushing installations, there was no shortage of inspiration. 📸
