There were hints of a fine art career in Ron Parker's early life, but they weren’t

overwhelmingly obvious. He was born and raised amongst the beauty of British

Columbia, but graduated from Lord Byng High School in Vancouver without a set

Ron Parker knew that fine art was a true calling when he found himself approaching

the subject with a dedication he had not experienced and the animals around his

home started getting familiar. Each year for the next ten years he devoted

himself to a different artistic challenge—light, composition, design, etc.

When the ten years were done Parker’s career as a fine artist was well on its

way, impressing collectors with more than a dozen one-man shows across the

continent. He was named "Artist of the Year" for the 1994 Vancouver

International Wildlife Art Show, was commissioned by the Royal Canadian Mint to

create sea otter images that would appear on coins and his paintings have been

repeatedly selected for the prestigious Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum’s
