We are pleased to announce that readership of Ron’s articles and satirical cartoons have surpassed 135,000 nationwide readers and continues to grow...
The main articles, An Open Letter (a commentary on premature political forecasting) and Silent Manifesto (The Pathetic Yelpings of a Delusional Misogynist), remain the leading two "5 Star Posts" in the Village Voice, Arts and Entertainment Forum of backpage.com
Silent Manifesto... addresses the increasing phenomenon of Internet Stalking, as it relates to the author’s personal account as the unwitting victim of an envious admirer.
Although both articles address issues of national and global concern, they are tastefully peppered with a curious series of articulate cartoons. The dialogues cover a myriad of diverse themes which include (but not limited to) . . . social satire, homophobia, practical recipes, human rights and the inquisitive banter of the two main contributors ikye and Regina Queens.
As the Art Director and script writer, Ron’s decade long experience as a Cable Television and Music Video Producer has once again been called into play...

An homage to Rachel Zoe and her talented staff of fashion stylists.
Honorable mention: Taylor Jacobson and Brad Goreski…
Haitian Creole Pudding: Happenstance and Feathers, is the newest addition to the gallery and unique to any in the collection. The painting is a series of stark black and white images peppered with soft coloured hues and crystalline highlights.
The digital canvas is a mélange of abstract portraiture, contrasting the refined detail of the surrealistic backdrop. Mardi, a veteran to Haitian falconry and her bird Tuti are the figurative subjects depicted in the painting.
Donna Berlanda – Publicist
In a vastly growing population of gallery images, the artist has once again shifted his focus. These recent contributions will be added to the Environmental – Landscape collection. Most notable are the impressionist renderings of; One Red Cherry, Mosquito Creek and Wild Berries.
