        Don Ruffin (1928 - 1977) "Maestro" Oil on Canvas. Don Ruffin was born in 1927 and grew up on a farm in the small town of Laveen, just outside of Phoenix. Although paper was hard to come by as a child, Don improvised by peeling the labels off of tin cans for drawing. It was during his childhood that he became acquainted with the Pimas and Maricopa's which led to Don's strong love for the Southwest tribes. Don's art has received international recognition for his love of the Southwest. However his work was not limited to Southwest art. His use of thick oil paint makes his work unique, impressionistic, and alluring. He has used this style to capture subject matter ranging from desert landscapes to still life to seascapes and portraits. He was commissioned to paint numerous portraits including Barry Goldwater, Mae West, and Jack London. He also worked with a variety of mediums including oils, pastels, and watercolors.
