Ron Coleman is a distinguished abstract expressionist painter whose work captures a profound synthesis of a structured vision and vibrant, emotive spontaneity. A member of the prestigious Manchester Academy of Fine Arts since 2017, Coleman has established a unique artistic voice that resonates with a broad audience. His paintings, often large-scale and dynamic, are celebrated for their rich, eye-catching colours and loose, powerful brushwork. Coleman's creative process is a compelling interplay between memory and emotion. His abstract compositions may find their genesis in a remembered landscape or a specific journey, but they are ultimately a deeply personal response to a feeling or situation experienced at a particular time. This duality is central to his unique artistic language.Born in Britain and formally trained at the Open College of the Arts, Coleman brings a meticulous and systematic foundation to his fluid, expressive style. This background, refined over decades of practice and exhibition, allows him to create balanced and harmonious compositions where the relationships between colour, form, and texture are both carefully considered and serenely intuitive. Drawing influence from a rich lineage of British and American painters—from the St. Ives abstract artists and the Scottish Colourists to the American expressionists—Coleman creates works that appeal directly to the visual senses. His art is a powerful invitation for the viewer to engage with the painted surface, an experience intended to be uplifting, mood-altering, and profoundly colourful.
