Ron Hicks was once asked about his favorite subject matter, he replied without hesitation, "...figures and interiors." But he quickly qualified "figures" by saying that painting them is really about painting shapes of color. "I am a shape guy. By that, I mean, I see things more in terms of shape rather than the objects or people," he says. "Everything is about shape, medium shape vs. large shape, lighter shape vs. darker shape."
Hicks has been interested in art since he was 4 years old growing up in Columbus, Ohio. His mother pursued art as a hobby and took correspondence courses. The young Hicks would scan the critiques of his mother's works and then trace some of the assignments himself.
