About the artist: Over 30 years ago Ron Burns started painting as a release from the corporate world where he was managing his LA based marketing and design firm. In his quest to find what truly inspired him he looked into the eyes of his newly rescued puppy, Rufus, and began on his path of painting bright, colorful, loving dogs. He found his next inspiration at a local shelter, painting several of the dogs. Upon selling the portraits, he donated a percentage back to the shelter, beginning what Ron calls “Art is Going to the Dogs”. On September 11, 2001, as he watched the events unfold, he saw the story of Sirius, the explosive detection dog that died in Tower II. Ron reached out to Sirius’ handler, David Lim, which led to the painting of Sirius, several search and rescue dogs and pet therapy dogs involved in the tragedy. Since then, he has painted countless dogs that survived insurmountable odds, dogs that devote themselves to service as well as continuing to portray the beauty of rescued dogs and beloved family members. Today Ron finds himself in his studio, with his latest rescue, painting commissioned works of people’s pets.
