Ron was born in Te Kuiti in 1949.
Ron began his art career when his art teacher
“bullied him into painting” during his School
Certificate year. He trained as a commercial
artist, but loves most of all to paint the natural
landscape, as God created it, but in a bold,
painterly style. It should look at its best when
viewed from four to six metres away. Oils
would be his medium of choice, but he has
won awards in Acrylics, Water Colours as well
as Oils. He has won or been placed in thirteen
national art competitions since he began
painting seriously in 1978.

His paintings have been reproduced in the
form of hand signed limited edition prints,
place- mats, coasters, and calendars. As the
result of successful exhibitions, Ron’s work can
be found in many countries in the world. Ron
is the author of an instructional video,
“Painting in Oils, with Ron Gribble.” This has
sold many copies in his native New Zealand,
and under license in the U.K. and Australia. He
has, as a result, become a sought after tutor,
and judge.
