Ron has been honing his skills as a rustic furniture maker for the past twenty years. He gathers his wood supply through mostly recycled downed trees, then mills and drys most all of his own hardwood. The artist then hand selects each piece for color, quality and natural grain form. His use of the logs live edge gracefully softens the transition between woods.

His creative talent for natural design combines functional practicality with exquisite sophistication. Ron’s artistic talents include intricate relief carvings often portrayed on his creations. Ron’s solid woodworking skills, meticulous craftsmanship and artistic talents combine to make high quality, functional art pieces inspired by the American West.

American West Designs offers pieces through the Reindeer Ranch in Cody, WY and the Brian Richter Fine Art Gallery in Brainerd, MN or by calling, writing or emailing Ron directly, you’ll find his contact information below.

Ron's energy and compassion for his work shows through in each piece. If you would like to discuss a design to fit your needs, Ron would be glad to here from you.
