"Before the Curtain" by Ramon Parmenter Sculpture for sale at Sculpture Collector

Born in Eugene, Oregon in 1954, Ramon Parmenter is one of America's youngest art masters. He received formal training at Walla Walla College as well as Southern Oregon College of Art, which in turn served as a foundation for his subsequent success. Although he is well versed in many artistic disciplines, it is Parmenter's sculptures that have cemented his reputation as a remarkable talent.

One of the reasons that so many people are drawn to Parmenter's sculptures is because they have a tremendous sense of balance and movement. Ramon's muse is the living body in motion. Though his subjects aren't necessarily engaged in extreme physical activities, Parmenter manages to capture beauty and grace in every piece he produces.
