A self-taught artisan, Ron Rendall defies convention by crafting intricate pieces of wood art without ever laying a knife to the delicate canvases he chooses. Instead, he artfully wields sandpaper, employing this humble tool to unveil the hidden beauty within the wood’s core. What sets his work apart is his ingenious use of food coloring. Ron skillfully mixes specific food coloring for each piece, a process that guarantees no two artworks are alike. The intriguing challenge arises when he tackles the color white, a notoriously stubborn hue due to its oil-based nature, which inherently resists the water-based qualities of food coloring. Yet, Ron’s art defies the age-old adage that “oil and water don’t mix,” revealing an exception to the rule through his wood art creations. With a precision that is nothing short of remarkable.
