Ronald Raevsky Modern Landscape Painter
2
Ronald Raevsky is a painter who studied at New
York University School of Art. His most famous
work is the painting entitled The Awakening
which fetched 15,000 at an auction in New York
City. While he has tried his hand at many other
styles and subjects, he remains first and
foremost a landscape painter.

He has an extraordinary ability of being able to
take an insightful look into nature and translate
it onto a canvas with amazing perfection.
Although much of his work is inspired from
existing landscapes, he also has a host of
paintings that are devoted to a utopian landscape
theme.

He was born in the town of Maysel, West Virginia,
and lived on his small family estate. He lived
with his mother, father, two sisters,
grandfather, and grandmother. Since he was the
youngest in the family, and a quiet child in
general, he received the love and attention of
everybody in the household.

When it was discovered that he was a gifted
painter, his family became his support system and
he relied on them for motivation and critique.
He was particularly close to his second eldest
sister, and he used to spend a lot of time with
her venturing off into the woods by their house.

Living at their family estate, Ronnie Raevsky and
his sister spent a great deal of time discovering
the outdoors by their house. His sister who is
an amateur painter herself would take her younger
brother to exhibitions and seminars hours away
from their house to nourish the creative painter
in him. Ronnie Raevsky believes that it was his
sister who really recognized that talent and
potential within him.

Ronnie currently lives on his family estate in
Maysel with his wife Angela and their two
children. Aside from continuing his painting, he
also runs a horse riding stable where he gives
lessons.
