    A Walk on the Beach
    by Ronald T. Crawford Painter
    Salt Spring Island artist Ron Crawford creates art with a unique combination of plaster and acrylic paint, resulting in a modern variation on the frescoes. The surfaces are carved, shaped, sanded and painted until they take on a rich, naturally eroded appearance.

    "With this painting I am playing with the sense or idea of a painting as being a precious thing and our desire to get closer to see and touch. This is combined with the sense of a beach, a footprint and the nails. The incongruous nature of these things together. This sense of a painting being a trace or a record of a passing of time, a walk on the beach." -Ron Crawford

    Painter Ronald T. Crawford

    Ronald T. Crawford’s paintings reflect both the theoretical and physical aspects of his life. On the one hand he has an extensive fine art education and has been exhibiting his work for over 30 years.

    On the other hand, for the past 25 years he has had extensive experience working on Salt Spring Island with functional and sculptural stonework. His multifaceted paintings are the result of the blending of contemporary painting concerns with the earthy spiritualism of stone.
