Ralph Weber was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and showed an interest in art at a young age. Majoring in art in high school brought some early recognition with people purchasing his ink drawings and woodcuts. Several of his pieces were featured in newspapers such as the Philadelphia Bulletin and the Trenton Times.

Upon completion of high school he was accepted at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, where he studied drawing and painting. When the time came to raise a family, Mr. Weber dedicated his time to learning the craft of stonemasonry and worked the trade for many years until his retirement.
After retiring from stonemasonry, Ralph resumed his passion for art. He has won awards in three states and has had several international clients. He now tries to paint every day.
Ralph lives in Luray, VA - stop by 123 S Main Street, Woodstock VA to see his oil paintings during the month of August.

 

Artist of the Month calls for artists, near and far, to share their craft with the local community through our non-profit creative arts center and gallery.
