Visual Artist

Since my introduction at a major survey show, Forum 76 at the Montreal Beaux Arts, I have been exhibiting in Toronto, Calgary, Montreal and New York. I work in a variety of media with a focus on abstraction. The most common elements in my work are pleasure and balance. I have pieces in collections in Japan, Hong Kong, Denmark, France, England and the US. In 2015, I moved to a wonderful property in Niagara-on-the-Lake, where I have opened a gallery, Ronald Boaks Fine Art. In the gallery are paintings, collages, monoprints & sculptures. Please ask if you are looking for something in a particular size or colour as there are more pieces available. I welcome enquiries from dealers and galleries.
