Juror Kenneth Ronney, sculptor and art group administrator, took up sculpting after taking an early retirement from his engineering career. Prior to retirement, he spent over 25 years pursuing hobbies of rockhounding, lapidary, and silversmithing, and always enjoyed working in stone and metal. Starting a new phase in his life, he took a hands-on sculpture class where he was formally introduced to working on moderately large pieces of stone. It was magic. His works have won multiple prizes in local club and gallery exhibits including the annual California Sculptors Exhibit.
Ken is also past president and exhibit chair of the California Art League, and Vice-President and exhibit chair of the San Fernando Valley Arts and Cultural Center. In these organizations and positions, he has participated in entering, administrating, curating, and/or judging over 60 competitive art exhibits.
Founded in 1925, the Pasadena Society of Artists is one of the area’s original professional artist groups. The Society is noted for its vigorous, active membership, wide diversity of artistic statements, and high professional standards. Membership is by juried submission.
PSA is a non-profit organization whose mission is to present the works of its many talented and creative artists to the community of Pasadena and surrounding areas.
