Jon Ren’s passion for drawing and painting began as a young boy. He was greatly influenced by his father, western artist Chuck Ren, and driven by his own natural ability. After graduating from the Art Institute of Colorado in 1990, Jon began his career as an artist creating team posters for the NFL. Jon’s works include a variety of subject matter which have been featured on collector plate series and limited edition prints. His father’s influence is evident in Jon’s Native American pieces. Jon’s love of wildlife steered him toward becoming a full-time wildlife artist. His recent accomplishments include the 2010 and 2011 Oregon Upland Game Bird Stamp, the 2007 and 2010 Timber Wolf Alliance Wolf Awareness Week Poster. His originals are available in galleries and shows across the nation including the Southeastern Wildlife Expo, Wild Wings, and March in Montana. His work is available in print through Wild Wings.
