Overview

The masterful trompe l'oeil work of Ron Isaacs is as charming as it is technically brilliant. Using birch plywood, select cutouts, and beautifully painted details which fool the eye, Isaacs creates compositions that pique your curiosity. A sense of surprise and appreciation is experienced when discovering his talent.

 

"My three primary recurring subjects are vintage clothing (for the way it continues the life of the past into the present, for its rich structures and colors and shapes, and for its anthropomorphic presence as a stand-in for the figure); plant materials in the form of sticks, leaves, flowers; and found objects. " - Ron Isaacs 

 

Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Ron Isaacs now lives and works in Lexington, Kentucky.
